And the amazing thing is you don't need to pay a premium for the good stuff compared to Scotch.

Any suggestions? I tend to shy away because of how expensive they can be.

Plenty of good cheap bourbon out there:

Cheapest, but very drinkable:

  • Evan Williams
  • Very Old Barton

A little more expensive, but amazing:

  • Buffalo Trace
  • Four Roses
  • Basil Hayden
  • 1792

No problem! Enjoy your alcoholic adventure!

What @[email protected] recommended is a good starter collection. Figure out your pallette preferences. Basically avoid the big name labels like Makers (same rule as for beer). If you have a Costco membership, you can get a good price.

About $40-$100 is the sweet spot.

  • Woodford reserve
  • high West
  • old Forester 1870, 1910, 1920
  • angels envy
