Blanton's is quite tasty, and you are right in your guess that it is a Buffalo Trace product. It is also one of the most consistent single barrel offerings out there. Very rare to find a 'bad barrel'. If you like JD, the new Sinatra Select is pretty good, and scuttlebutt is there will be a special release in 2015 for Sinatra's 100th birthday.

I love me a tasty bourbon. Booker's is another you might want to try. My "go to" is Basil Hayden's (80 proof) which I find very smooth sipped neat. I have a bottle of Jefferson's waiting to try as well. I don't think you can wrong with any of the Beam products and Beam Black is great at it's price point. My brother-in-law swears by his Maker's Mark and was so upset about rumors that they were changing the proof that he bought several cases. Have you seen the TV show "Justified"?? It's full of product placement and references to great bourbons.
