Buffalo Trace or Woodford are my go tos for general sipping.

Matt225 has a good list.

Wild Turkey Products
-Rare Breed
-Russell's Reserve
-Wild Turkey 101 (mixer)
These have solid oak char flavor. I love it.

Wheated Bourbons will have a sweeter flavor with notes of fruit
Bardstown
Green River
Weller/Buffalo Trace/Eagle Rare/EH Taylor
New Riff (I think this is wheated)
Penelope Wheated

Four Roses has variou recipes but any of the small batch or single barrel is good. Nice smooth and some fruit notes

Old Forester is solid as well. It has a diff note than Wild Turkey products or Wheated bourbons. I swear I get some kind of banana note from Old Forester. It's good stuff.

Bookers Bourbon is the BEST!! A little pricey. Wonderful with a large ice cube

I mean it is a brown-foreman product after all, which is a prominent tasting note in lots of Jacks.

Speaking of, all of the single barrel (especially barrel proof) jack products are fantastic

Evan Williams Bottled In Bond

For a little bit of heat, spice and proof, Old Grand Dad 114

+1 for Old Grand Dad 114 has to be the most underrated and underpriced bourbon out there. It is excellent at its price but even if it was $45/bottle it would still be an excellent deal.
