Basil Haydens...You're welcome


This is the best Bourbon I've ever had. It's like it was made for me.

About 40 bucks a bottle, sometimes in the 30s. I'm not rich so it's my special occassion booze. Love it!

I like Maker's Mark and Jim Beam. They mix wonderfully with Coke.

I like regular Dickel White Label. I have not tried this single barrel stuff but Dickel White (12) is better than any of the expensive ones I have tried.

Thanks guys for all the reply's. I ended up going with Basil Hayden's. Albertsons had it for $34 and it seemed like a good deal.

I'll try it tomorrow and I'll let yall know what I think. I've had too many drinks at Chilli's tonight and don't want my buzz to ruin it.


any cigar smokers out there wanna recommend me a cigar to go with this bourbon? I've never smoked a cigar in my life, but for some strange reason I have an urge to start.

Thanks again

Bourbon is great, Scotch is my fave but the new hot thing in whiskeys is Rye.

Mellow flavor with a spice and caramel finish. Bulleit makes a great one but I have been stuck on Wild Turkey Rye for a while. Also if you are in for a something cheap and surprising, Old Overholt Rye is $9 a bottle and is suprisingly delicious.
