Bourbon...

It's goooood. Enjoy in moderation to avoid bankruptcy. Lol.
It is pricey!
It's $40-45 a bottle around these parts. Is it more where you are?

My brother in law brought that and it was very good.
Pappy 15 is without doubt the best I’ve ever had. The prices and scarcity sure take the fun out of it though.
Lol. Around here, it’s about $30 a bottle. If buying that makes one “Wall Street”....
It's not a bad bourbon but I'd give it a solid three out of five. It's a little overrated. I've had much better bourbon in the $18-$29 range.Angel's Envy. Try it now, thank me later.
Booze is significantly cheaper in AZ than PA, where I'm originally from. And AE is around $50 here in AZ. Damn. Lol
Depends on the bottle. The small batch and single barrel is more expensive. Of course, I live about 2 hours from the distillery.
Agreed. Some of their small batch has been good, but inconsistent. It’s always a safe bet in a restaurant when traveling, though.
Blantons, but I always have 4-5 bottles going.

Wait, how does this song start again??
I've tried some of the other Jefferson offerings but not this label. However, what I have tried I liked very much.
Of late (my mid 40's until now) I've migrated more toward single malts. I have a bottle of Glenmorangie "The Lasanta" which is the best scotch I've had. Not a connoisseur by any stretch but it's a noticeable step up from the Chevas Regal I began with.
I have not. However I like Jefferson's and have gotting into the Presidential Select.
I'd say my favorite go to is the red Weller. Antique 107. I like it over their Special reserve and 12, I haven't had a chance yet to try the William Larue.
I will say that I like that Antique over a 12 Rip too.
I will also brag on the goodness of the Elijah Craig 12 and 18. Both excellent bourbons.

I tried the Yellowstone a time or three. I like it, but it tends to run a little hot. Not a turn off for me, but not quite the smooth sipper to me.
Elmer T. Lee is a solid choice for me, but dang pieces are getting crazy up around here for it. Starve too.
Good call on the Blanton @guy n. cognito. I'll usually have that if I'm out and about, although I seldom buy bourbon out.
Elijah Craig is getting better too, good recommendation @10cc.
