I picked up a bottle as part of a Flaviar subscription gift with higher expectations, but just not into it. I've also heard really good things about Wilderness Trail, but seems too.... new.

That's what great about bourbon/whiskey. Lots of flavor profiles that appeal to different people.
Use the Russell's for the peaches then. That would be good since it IS a good bourbon.

Maker's isn't my go-to but it was a bday present from the in-laws so I don't feel too bad using it as a mixing bourbon.

I LOVE whiskey sours, drink tons of them at home, but restaurants add that shitty mix to them.
3oz bourbon
Juice from 1 large lemon or 2 small
Agave Nectar 1-2 tsp
1 Egg White (frothy)
Shake and strain. That's the way to make one next time. The best whiskey to use for a sour is a rye whiskey as it has more bite.
