I've had Pappy's a few times but the price is ridiculous & it's impossible to find.
I just settle for Makers 46 or Buffalo Trace usually.

Never had any on that list.

When I"m poor Jim Beam
Time to enter into Bourbon snob.
Jack Daniels is NOT a Bourbon. It is Tennessee Whiskey
Of the Tennessee Whiskies, I prefer Gentleman Jack.
Regular Black Label Jack Daniels with Coke is a favorite if I'm looking to mix.

Has anyone here ever had Booker's True Barrel? They have it in a store here, and if you believe the brags on the bottle it's supposed to be pretty great. A bit expensive but it is 121-127 proof. Ask Steelhead I just sent him a bottle he got it today and already had a sampling

I can't believe people defile good whiskey with coke. I use coke to clean battery terminals.
Fred Fred, You need to visit and let me take you to an SEC football game. You will appreciate bourbon and coke. Maybe the operative phrase is "good" whiskey, but it all tastes good on game day!

Booker is good stuff. The bottle I have is about half gone now. I don't guzzle it. ![[Linked Image]](http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt349/Knocky/2013%20First%20Half/Bookers_zps1fb19ef2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt349/Knocky/2013%20First%20Half/Bookers2_zps27552540.jpg)

I am partial to Rowan's Creek, Bullitt and Old Fitzgerald. I do have a bottle of the Blanton single barrel, and it too, is tasty stuff. Especially when you add some Coke, ice, and a slice of lime.  So how would you compare those to Booker's? Our store has that and Blantons, and unfortunately can't afford both.

Booker is good stuff. The bottle I have is about half gone now. I don't guzzle it. I gave a bottle of that to a Captain in the Canadian army who was a couple of weeks from heading to Afghanistan for his second tour,...told him to take it with him. I told him to make sure and share with the enlisted men. He was dating a friend of my wife. They spent a week with us a few years ago,..and he was a big bourbon fan. Personally, I can't stand the stuff, but I bought a lot of the local premium stuff for him to try out while he was here. I joined him, but had Stoli instead. He was ready to cry "uncle" by the time he left. I bought him the bottle of Bookers his last day here.

Thirty years ago I was invited to hunt a couple of days on some very exclusive waterfowl property in western Kentucky. All of the guys in the blind with me for both of those days were all millionaires, and I didn't have a pot to piss in.
The bourbon of choice was Ezra Brooks.
I buy Blanton's and Woodford for my friends that think good bourbon has to be expensive to be good.

Van Winkle is very good but too expensive and too hard to find. Not worth it....
Blantons and Woodford are my favorites regardless of price. If price is a consideration then Buffalo Trace or Weller are the clear winners.
