Homebrewing: Help on what type of stout to brew

Hi all. My name is Bug, and i haven't brewed in over 2 months
**crowd: Hi Bug**
Ok, so i haven't brewed in awhile because i just moved into my first house.
I want to brew a stout. I have yet to brew a stout before and i have 3 types to choose from.
1) Oatmeal Stout. Tried and true, i love a good oatmeal stout. Sam smith may be one of my favorite beers.
2) Bourbon Barrel Stout: I've been having a bourbon barrel for about 5 months now, and have yet to use it. It's been resting in a sanitizing solution. If i go this route, i'm going buy some cheap whiskey and fill it up again, before secondarying into the barrel.
3) Coffee Stout: Found a great recipe in Zymurgy for a good coffee stout. Interested in trying it.
I am leaning more towards bourbon barrel at the moment. Really want to use that barrel, and use some good woodford reserve for the actual brew.
Your thoughts?

Sounds like you have already made up your mind.

You didn't buy the bourbon barrel to take up space. Use it!
I'd go with a big imperial stout and secondary in the barrel.
