alocispepraluger102 Posted November 25, 2006 Author Report Posted November 25, 2006 settled on some wild turkey rare breed--great choice--powerful, like a shostakovich symphony!!! Quote

(BB) Posted November 25, 2006 Report Posted November 25, 2006 In order of preference. WL Weller 19 year - my absolute bar-none favorite. Smooth Mellow Complex Perfect, Black Maple Hill - Oh so nice, but very hard to find Eagle Rare - Half the price and twice as good as most "Top Shelf" bourbons Russel's 10 Year - a solid B+ Wild Turkey - Rare Breed is ok, I just like a little more mellow/carmel flavor Woodford Reserve a good drink, but a tad overpriced in my book Blanten's here again a "good" drink, but way overpriced to my taste Evan Williams - just ok Whiskey River - Pass The cheap WL Weller (I think it's 80proof) is my favorite of the under $16 bottles. Although not bourbon, I do enjoy the 80 & 90 proof George Dickel. Unfortunately I live in Washington, which has state liquor stores. I don't mind the high taxes, I just wish they had better selection, so I depend on my folks in CA for the good stuff. That should keep you busy, if you can stay conscious. Bill Quote
