Woodford’s Reserve is great for decent price
Angels Envy is my pick at any price point.
It’s $50 at VA ABC stores
Blantons
Whatever you pay for Partner 😃
Buffalo Trace
Whistle pig
Not bourbon, but delicious
Basil Hayden is my go-to. For less than $40 it’s hard to beat
Under 100 but a good range of price points:
EH Taylor Small Batch
Eagle Rare
Bookers
Blantons
Angel’s Envy
Weller Special Reserve
Weller Antique 107
Noah’s Mill
Elijah Craig Barrel Proof
McKenna
Michter’s Single Barrel
My personal favorite is more like 150 but Old Fitzgerald 15 year if you can get your hands on it
I didn’t really like Noah’s - but I’d agree with the rest on this list. Basically any “relative” to Blantons works.
Elmer T Lee (Buffalo Trace)
I’ve been really enjoying this bottle of Larceny I got as a gift
Peerless or High West American prairie
Eagle Rare (Buffalo trace) at like $35/fifth
Bourbon is a child’s whiskey. Rye and Scotch are for the big kids
Ok but Four Roses is solid
Pappy is a bit over hyped. In fact, I don’t love it. If you ask smaller or independent shops - you might find a pappy for 400 or so. But, There are plenty of bourbons out there for significantly less that I like just as much if not more. I’m not a scotch guy, and find my tastes pretty much like anything from the buffalo trace distillery. My personal go to is eagle rare and Blantons. But both have become hard to find. McKenna is a good alternative but he also become very popular (aka - hard to find). Everyone has Woodford and it’s a good price point. It’s my backup goto when bars are sold out of my usual favorites.
Weller or Stagg Jr if I’m buying. Pappy if Partner/MD is buying
Wild Turkey 101 is my daily driver (... that doesn’t sound right.)
Jefferson Ocean!
I’ll start. Booker’s.
Pappy Van winkle

You’re so smooth, Keith Stone. 🍻
Balvenie (scotch not bourbon) is really growing on me
