Top-Have not had.

Jefferson's- Heard it's good but depends on price.


Merica-----Absolute trash. Avoid at all costs.

I have 11 bottles of Eagle Rare, non of the above had me reaching for them. what I'm looking for a "quantity" Bourbon, something that is tolerable to serve neat or rocks and cheap enough to pour 8 drinks with mixers and not get snide comments about being cheap.

I think I am torn between Ezra and Evan for 1.75 bottles at $25.

I love Eagle Rare.

Evan Williams is my go to cheap bourbon. Love the green label but can rarely find it. So black label is my go-to. It's fantastic for making drinks for people. And under $20 for a 1.75L.

There are various twits in how people are making these now. What's your recipe? What kind of bourbon?

Weird. I can get 1.75 of Evan for about $18-19 and the Ezra would be $25-26 here.

Let me know how that 7 year Ezra is. I'd like to find one here if it's worth it.

Shit--need something strong. Wandered into the Washington DC lounge for the first time. Holy crap, I won't make that mistake again. Weird folks over there. I'm a Captain Morgan's guys, so I'll have to wait as the cabinet is empty. I'll get back to you guys.

Not breaking into it' til the sun sets, but hoping it is a decent swill. It was a gift and it's sold out from EB store. I had never seen a bottle.

My brother absolutely loves Luxco of St lou bourbon brands. I have had this like it pretty well but comes at a price. He can get those owning his own construction company. Do you like licorice as it has a hint of licorice and vanilla. Its a bit harsh if you like your bourbon neat. Brother tames it with a few drops of purified water. Ezra Brooks is a pretty nice 20 dollar bottle. Rebel Yell up the anti a bit in the 40s or splurge on Blood Oath pact 5 thats the real good stuff.

Or if your just after the buzz Luxco's frat party fav 160 proof everclear:D

You found Ezra Ezra barrel strength 117 proof for 25 bucks? Or is that the 101 proof?

Just a little brown sugar cube, small piece of orange and a cherry then most of the time either Bullet or Trader Joe’s whisky is is actually pretty good for how cheap it is.

I’ve had the Jeffersons. It’s nice but a bit mild (often called smooth) but not in a bad way. Depends on the price. Must be nice to have liquor in grocery stores.
