Buffalo trace and Woodford are 2 good all around Bourbons. Then I have a few more expensive options.

Still Austin and Wild Turkey/Russell’s Reserve

My original answer was me being a smart arse, but I usually have a standard bottle of Makers for people who aren’t “into” whiskey.
ETA: I also use it for cooking

Jack Daniel’s isn’t a bourbon.

Does Jack Daniel's meet these rules?
Yes, Jack Daniel's is made in Tennessee, USA. Did you know that Tennessee is a partially dry state? Indeed, the home of Jack Daniel's distilllery, Moore County, totally bans the sale of alcohol except for commemorative bottlings sold at Jack Daniel's distillery's gift shop.
Yes, in fact, they make and char their own new handcrafted white oak barrels and have been doing so for over 150 years.
Yes, the mash is approximately 80% corn, 12% rye and 8% malt.
Yes, it comes over the still at 140 proof (70% abv), and enters the barrel at no more than 125 proof (62.5% abv).
Yes, Jack Daniel's contains no artificial colouring or flavouring.
So, Jack Daniel's is a bourbon in the eyes of the Federal Standards of Identity for Distilled Spirits

Buffalo Trace and Woodford
Lately I've been drinking Widow Jane Decadence and really like that one.

WLW & King of Kentucky are probably my 2 best bottles.

So, I’ve been selling alcohol for 23 years. You probably don’t want to go there with me. Here you go. Besides, it literally reads Tennessee Sour Mash on the bottle.
Tennessee whiskey and bourbon are both American whiskeys with a lot in common, but Tennessee whiskey undergoes an additional filtering step called the Lincoln County Process, which distinguishes it from bourbon, according to Nestor Liquor and Liquor.com. Both must be made in the US, primarily from corn, aged in new, charred oak barrels, and meet certain proof requirements, but Tennessee whiskey is specifically made in Tennessee and must be filtered through sugar maple charcoal before aging.
