Evan Williams 1783 Small Batch

Type:

One of the cheapest drinkable bourbons around . Usually can be found for $20 or so which is a steal these days for anything in a glass bottle and halfway decent.

George T. Stagg 2011 Release

Type:

The 2011 release is somewhat less fruitier on the noise and is generally a bit lighter in character despite one of the higher barrel proofs in a while.

Heaven Hill 27 Year Old Barrel Proof Bourbon

A stunning achievement in both whiskey distilling and aging. While Parker Beam did not live to see this whiskey bottled I am sure he would be proud of it.

Heaven Hill Heritage Collection 1st Edition

Type:

Decent if not spectacular. More of an investment than a drinking bottle for the low-life bottom feeders that engage in such a trade as it will no doubt be a limited edition and much sought-after bottle. Yes, I think a Heaven Hill aficionado would enjoy it quite a bit and it is worth trying if you can, but maybe not buying an entire bottle as it is pricey for what it is. Leave it to the speculators and shallow egotists and buy some of their more modestly priced releases for enjoyment.

Jim Beam Black Label

Decent if a trifle simple. Available almost anywhere and a reliable choice.

Jim Beam White Label

Light, easy to drink, but not a lot going on flavor wise. Simple, easy, and cheap.

Bottle of Larceny Barrel Proof A120Larceny Barrel Proof Batch A120 123.2 Proof

Type:

Not only do you get the extra proof but a lot of subtle aging characteristics and aromas that would have been lost in the proofing down process! Worth the extra money for the extra proof and all the goodness that comes with it!

Larceny Barrel Proof Batch A121 114.8 Proof

Type:

One of the best buys in bourbon right now. Yes, it is a relatively mass-produced whiskey, but it is a nicely done barrel-proof release of good bourbon to start with and the price/value ratio is a lot higher than a lot of newer craft whiskies that frankly are not as good – especially for the money.
