Around these parts a 1.75 of Jim Beam is 16.99 at Costco. It’s my go not just because of price but also I just find it perfectly drinkable.. there may be some other decent cheap ones out there like your EW Conrad,but I just can’t seem to stray..
If there’s a cheaper one you like go for it
Basil Hayden’s when I splurge and it’s 32 bucks a 750.
I only buy booze at Costco cause it makes no sense to buy it elsewhere else
