Four Roses Single Barrel
Rare Breed Barrel Proof

I will always keep these with backups for myself.

Green River Full proof I consider as good for this lineup.

Woodford Reserve for mixing and Blanton's for neat. Usually have a bottle of Woodford Double Oak sitting around as well.

Oh hell, who ani I trying to kid, I have over 200 bottles of distilled liquor in my collection.

Benchmark is not good. Blind every offering with a $15 bottle VO Barton 100. It doesn’t stack up. I think the top floor is actually the best one but it’s splitting hairs on a bottom barrel offering.

Green River is making some good stuff. The FP is very good for the price point

Blantons is a good low proof entry level bourbon to share but at $80 retail now it’s a pass every time. It’s starting to be a shelfer in Illinois which I pass through pretty often and has good allocation compared to most states.

Blantons is over priced and hard to find in fort worth. Its good but i find eagle rare and Col Taylor to be just as good.

Surprised the bourbon snobs haven't DV you to death. These are two very solid "affordable" pours, especially the OGD114.
