I for years I have been on the crown royal, makers mark, and V.O. gold trend. Can anyone suggest anything similar in price to try?

Pretty much all $18-$30 bourbons are better than those IMO.

If you like wheated bourbons like Makers, try WL Weller

If you like more rye, try Bulleit

Anything that Buffalo Trace Distillery makes is pretty good, even Ancient Age

Around the low 20's is Buffalo Trace, high 20's-30 is Woodford Reserve.

I find Elmer T Lee to be the best bang for you buck. Great taste. Real smooth. Easily my go to bourbon for every day. I love the stuff.

Although considering the arse water you've been drinking it really doesn't matter.

I like Makers. 10yr Old Charter is hard to beat as well.
GentleMan Jack is very smooth.

Blanton's is a tad higher then most of those listed. It's damn good.

Booker's is a little less expensive, also not as good as Blanton's. Think it's from the Jim Beam Line.

It's worth a try.
