ejewell Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 In the American (USA) market, we just have Blantons single barrel, although Buffalo Trace uses the same mashbill in several of its other marketed bourbons. I know that the Pacific Rim has different Blantons bottlings. Honestly, they are all probably quite good. Buffalo Trace really doesn't put out any poor whisk(e)y. You're right, there is a bottling for the international market https://www.blantons...bon.com/special which is what is available here for the same price as Buffalo Trace. The original single barrel is also available, so might check that out. Cheers Unless I am mistaken, Blanton's currently has 7 Bottlings, some more similar than others. The basic and most common single barrel (not pictured, using the box/bottle as a book end currently. haha) Special reserve (green) Silver Edition (Japan Release) Gold Edition Straight from Barrel. Two I recently discovered but don't have are Paris By Day and Paris By Night. Only available at one distributor as far as I'm aware, in Paris. Now for my top Bourbons: Pappy 20 Blanton's Special Reserve Blanton's Single Barrel Basil Hayden's Maker's 46 Bourbon and Scotch are a gift from above. And due to the stringency on their production they are all 'organic' if you will without any unnatural additives so I say in moderation they're actually healthy for you! Drink on everyone. Edit: forgot the picture! hah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion21 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 These are my favorite bourbons for sipping (I have only had the Pappy 15 twice and don't own a bottle). 1) Elmer T Lee - after 15 minutes breathing holy lord is it good!!!! 2) Pappy 13 year rye ( amended from 15 yr wheated) 3) Bulleit 10 Year - 10-15 minutes to breath and wow! 4) Pure Kentucky XO -Blue Label 5) Four Roses Single Barrel What I have found is the sweet spot for aged bourbon is 10-15 years. I find them pleasantly sweet and very smooth after breathing for a while. My favorite bourbon to mix an Old Fahioned cocktail with is Woodford Reseve. The flavor of the bourbon goes really well with my recipe. I use the Julian Van Winkle recipe that you can find online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogglor Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 1) Four Roses Single Barrel - the best, smoothest, most delicious 50% ABV bourbon there is. 2) Bookers - unbelievable barrel proof spirit, let it rest for about 20 minutes and it takes the edge off it and it's flavor country from there on out. 3) Blanton's - I never seem to buy much of this since it competes with Four Roses Single for my dollar at the same price point, but still quite good. 4) Evan Williams Single Barrel - the best bourbon at the $25 price point, IMO. 5) Elijah Craig - another cheap and cheerful.

BoHunter3 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 The list keeps changing as I try new ones, most aren't too bad haha! but so far my list would be; 1) Noah's Mill 2) Willett 3) Bullet 4) Four Roses 5) Elijah Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
free85 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 My top three would be: Knob Creek Bulleit 10 Year Buffalo Trace Buffalo Trace is here because, while not a particularly amazing spirit, I find it to be amazing given how it's priced where I am. At least until people figure this out and it becomes more expensive. The extra time for the Bulleit really does seem to make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkenMonkey Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Weller Basil Hayden Blanton's Hell, there are tons of great bourbons available now; just pick one, it's probably good. This is the golden age we're living in, for bourbon and beer. We're very lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
