Four Roses

Angels Envy is a solid bourbon, but their Rye is a great whiskey. It’s a little pricier and tough to find, but you shouldn’t have any probables picking it up in Louisville for $90-$100 a bottle.

Yeah it is good. These are all mid-grade Bourbons, but they work just fine. Calandros has a special Elijah Craig barrell at the moment.

I would look to buy something there that you can’t find in stores around the country.

Angels Envy has a bottle for about $100. It’s aged in rum casks and is an excellent choice for what you’re looking for.

Booker's and a good cigar.

Had it at a bar last winter. Love it. So different from any other bourbon you'll taste because of that hint of rum.

Four Roses Single Barrel is my choice at that price range. I think Angel’s Envy is overpriced. It’s good, but there are better bourbons for that money.

I’ve done tastings with a lot of the ones mentioned here. Basil haden is a frequent winner.
Fwiw, We had a tasting once with high end stuff and Old grand dad And old grand dad was a winner with a lot of the guys.

A few miles east of Louisville is Lawrenceburg, home to the Four Roses and Wild Turkey Distilleries. Four Roses, especially, has a line of bourbons to suit any taste. It's worth the short trip just to sample their wares.

Weller green label is like $30.
Can’t beat it at that price point.

Knob Creek Single Barrel or WT Rare Breed

Rip Van Winkle is the answer.
He can’t get it at home and won’t break the bank.

Angel's Envy is garbage.
Get him a bottle of Four Roses Single Barrel Private collection. And just go to liquor store to get it. It's more expensive at the distilleries.

I second this (as a Louisvillian).
I’m a Four Roses Single Barrel or Basil Hayden girl myself. Basil is a good summer bourbon since it tends to be a little lighter/spicier.
Also, a lot of the distilleries have ways you can personalize bottles. So if you want Four Roses, check that out on the tour/at the distillery.
