Lots of personal preference factors in to this decision.
I have sampled many bourbons and whiskeys. I still like Jack Daniels, Wild Turkey 101 is a sleeper as stated above. Basil Hayden is good and have recently been drinking a brand called Backbone, both prime and uncut. There are probably some I have forgot.
That is the beauty of all the choices, keep sampling.
Buffalo Trace, is one I do not personally do not like.
