It feels like a bourbon-drinking kind of day. Which bourbon (s) are you drinking this weekend?
I will most likely be choosing from Larceny Barrel Proof, Penelope Architect, Jack Daniels Barrel Proof, and Eagle Rare.

Hmmm...a very good question. Eagle Rare is never a bad selection.

Picked up a bottle of George Remus yesterday. Very good and affordable but hard to find.
Hard to go wrong with Eagle Rare, very hard to find.
Happy sipping.

Best I've ever had, hands down. WT isn't as sexy as all of these other ones out there but RB is outstanding. Hell, WT 101 is #### good bourbon.

A lot of those old school brands have been gobbled up by corporate interests and I’ve noticed an ongoing decline in quality with an increase in price. Best thing to do is stay current and do some research. For instance, bardstown bourbon company is making arguably the best stuff out there and isn’t corporate owned and still has a ton of money behind it but nobody is really taking much about it

Good advice about doing research. I was not aware that Bardstown was not corporate-owned. The only thing I had heard about their bourbon is that it was hit or miss depending on the batch, even more so than bourbons from other distilleries.
I tried a Bardstown bourbon for the first time three days ago. It was the Discovery Series 9, and I enjoyed it.

Grabbed a distillery-only selection from BBC on my last trip to KY in 2021. They are doing a lot of cool bottlings.

My taste buds were off the last few days, so nothing was tasting right. But, the few times I've had it, it's great.

Have small batch and single barrel.
If you're an Old Fashioned fan, try High West Double Rye...a bit less sweet but the spice is there.
