@seul how do you like the Talisker 10?

I've had a smoky "Whisky beer" from England some years ago, but it was not to my liking.
-
I really like Bulleit - I especially Enjoy their Rye

Bulleit is great for the price, I try to always have a bottle around. If you like Bulleit try Redemption high rye whiskey.
I recently went to Nashville and stopped by the Corsair Distillery. Picked up a single barrel bottle of their Oatrage oat whiskey. A very nice bottle, 126 proof I believe. They do a ton of experimenting and I don't like a majority of it but they hit a home run now and again.

I agree Bulleit is a great value. There's tons of really great bourbon out there not named "Pappy" that's less than $50 a bottle. My local liquor bought their own barrel of Eagle Rare 10yr bourbon and is selling it for $34.99 a bottle can't beat that. If you come across any of the Smooth Ambler Old Scout bourbons or ryes they're fantastic.

Prefer Woodford Reserve personally.

That's my "nice restaurant" drink since most places tend to have it, also a very solid bourbon, as is eagle rare (I like many of the things from the Buffalo Trace distillery).
Old Forester is a good knockaround bottle, and their Birthday Bourbon offering sells out very quickly. I randomly lucked into one of those a few years back and it was phenomenal.
FEW is a good one as well, but a tad overpriced in my opinion.
(I drink lots of bourbon…)

Like Woodford Reserve as well. Getting a bourbon barrel stout aged in Woodford barrels. I've gotten a few of the Birthday Bourbons as well,but they've become increasingly hard to come by. Tried Few and it didn't do anything for me. Love Makers especially the cask strength. My brother recently brought me 2 bottles of the euro Blantons(the gold top and the straight from the barrel) really great stuff. Seems like drinking a lot of bourbon is something we have in common.

Sipping some Johnny Walker Green tonight.

My favorite bourbon was Elijah Craig 18 yo. Is that one still available in the us? Bookers and bakers are also great whiskies.

. They release it once a year and most liquor stores only get 6 bottles which they rarely put on the shelves. So you have to be a real good customer to get some. I got a bottle in 2015 for $130 which is a real good price as most boost the price as much as they think they can get. Really great bourbon. Save it for specials occasions.

Damn, I got it for 40€ a few years ago. Pricing for Whisky tops everything These days.

It's their Basic / core product but a very good and highly reputed peated Malt. 50€ is ok, 70 way too much. You should be able to get it around 40-45€ online if you're lucky.
