new value favorite
$31 bottle and before I even got up to the checkout I had three people tell me "good choice".
VERY GOOD.
Heard good things, but haven't gotten to it yet. in my price range though
I have been in search of a good cheap bourbon (under $20) for just having on a regular basis.
I liked the Very old Barton ($16) , was very surprised by it. Bought Buffalo trace(maker of Eagle Rare also)
at the same time ($26?) and actually liked the Barton Better.
I went in to get a refill on the Barton, but they were out, so they recommended Benchmark
as a similar "inexpensive" bourbon. Gonna crack into it tonight. Think it was $16 and is made by Buffalo Trace, so I am eager to see how it differs. think its a 8year. All the reviews I have read about it are great.
BUlleit is another good one too. Had a few people recommend it, so I took a few glasses, and really liked it. Feel like I am expanding my pallet.
Its amazing, my first taste of Wild turkey was at like 15yrs old, And I couldn't believe people drank what tasted like an old leather shoe.
