As others have mentioned I've heard its a very light whiskey and many bourbon drinkers don't like it because there's too little boldness and spice but should be very smooth and softer. Maybe kinda like a Davidoff cigar
Thanks for posting the pictures. Definitely interesting to see it laid out like that. Looking at it that way, it's very clear that I prefer stuff aged 10+ years as those are most of my purchases lol

No problem, Justin is the one who sent those to me so mad props to him on that. And I agree completely, right there with you on what I buy when I'm buying a nicer bottle anymore.
What would you guys recommend for a relative noob as something that would be good for enjoying straight but also wouldn't be considered too good to mix with a Coke or something like that.

Makers Mark
X2. Though I never tried makers yet but hear good things.

I think as Vinny and Justin said Makers Mark is a good and reasonable choice, I would also say W.L. Weller Private Reserve is another great choice on the cheaper end, and being a wheated bourbon it's a little lighter and softer, not so in your face boldness.
Awesome, thanks a lot guys. Just recently finished the big bottle of Kraken Rum I got a while back and looking to try some different things. Appreciate the suggestions and will keep checking out this and the WDYGT thread to see what you guys are enjoying. It's like when I started into Cigars, so much stuff out there but been doing pretty well with Cigars so hoping this goes well too.
Going to check out a place here in town tomorrow and see what they have and what it's all going for. Found a place online that has a great selection too but the Shipping gets you there. Been doing tons of research and watching reviews though and found some different ones that sound interesting. I have Makers Mark and the Weller on the list and also am interested in Russel's Reserve, Larceny, Buffalo Trace and their Eagle Rare, the Glenfiddich 15 and I know it's not Bourbon or Whiskey but want to try some Port too.
