Drinking some Bison Ridge 8yo tonight. I miss Pendleton's and Wiser's but they are a little harder to find here than in MN.
Pretty smooth so far.

Although I do like a little Eagle Rare now and again and Bernheim is a good change of pace whiskey...

A thread like this popped up a year or so ago, and took someone's suggestion on trying the Balvenie doublewood 12 year, and let me tell you, that was unreal.
Picked up a bottle of 14 year Balvenie Caribbean cask (stored in rum barrels- hint of sweet), and the new Balvenie 15 year doublewood, which I havent cracked yet...

As to bourbons, there are several that I do enjoy. Currently my favorite is Bulliet, followed closely by Buffalo Trace. Woodford Reserve sure ain't bad, either. Basil Heyden is mighty fine stuff as well, but a bit expensive for me.

right now I'm on a Pendleton kick, thanks to the 'fire recos.
also have Basil Hayden's in the cabinet, Woodford reserve, Knob Creek, Glenlivet 14 (?) i think, CR black cask and one of my very faves but a rare treat for special occassions, Jim Beam blue label, it's smoother than a woman's shaved legs between clean sheets.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

I mostly drink Rum thru the year, but around Christmas thru new Years I switch to whiskey. Jack Daniels Single Barrel, Makers Mark or Jameson. I might have to give some of these others a try.

Glenfiddich, Pendleton, Crown. An ice cube or two and good company makes all seem right in the world.

I have 9 different Bourbons in the cabinet now. I gave away all the Scotch, just lost my taste for it all together. My favorite is Old Fitzgerald 1849, a 90 proof whiskey. Sadly, the distiller does not sell it in Florida, and only in one outlet in Georgia. Tower Beer & Wine in Atlanta has set aside 6 bottles for me though, and I'll pick them up the first of January when I drive through the Big A on the way to visit family in Birmingham.

So far my favorite bourbon is Knob Creek Single Barrel Reserve. I also like Woodford Reserve and Buffalo Trace. Tried Blanton's after learning about it on this board and it's very good. Next I'm gonna try Basil Hayden's.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Pendleton or Crown for me.

I tend to skip around on good bourbons and a few others, and skip scotch altogether. Makers, Gentleman Jack, Woodford, Buffalo Trace, Knob Creek, Jack Single Barrel. All good IMO. Woodford may be my favorite. One I do not hear mentioned here often that I highly recommend you guys try is Wiser's Very Old.........

I just found a new favorite - Makers Mark #46. Probably the best whiskey I have ever tasted and I have had quite a few that cost many more dollars than the #46. It is very smooth, a pleasant taste and nice aroma. Now, if it only wasn't so darned pricey.

Only bourbon. I like Makers Mark, but at almost half the price Evan Williams 1783 is my usual.
