I used to post in the extremely long bourbon thread, but I stopped keeping up. What are your favorite bourbons under $50 to drink either neat, on the rocks, or cut with water?

Four roses single barrel and bulleit 10 year are two of my favorites. Trying eagle rare for the first time tonight.

So just start a new one when the question your asking gets asked in that thread all the time?

I was hoping to get responses from people who actively participate in the long thread, and from those who may not.

I'm partial to Knob Creek Single Barrel at the upper end of your price point. Ymmv

Jefferson has a couple in that range. Bowman Brothers is good too. There are a lot of bourbons in that range.

The long thread is basically worthless for this type of question. There is no topic flow, and answers to questions may be spaced over several pages.

It seems to be a great thread for people who want to talk about whisky on a daily basis, but it is more like a local pub that tolerates outsiders than a place where everyone is included. And nothing wrong with that. Just observing.

At most stores, Blanton's is over the $50 limit.

It's my favorite summer bourbon. Light and spicy.

Woodford (depending on where you are, here it's under $50)
Four Roses Single Barrel
