Need Help Quick from the Bourbon Drinkers

[slow99]

I don't touch liquor, but I need to get a nice bottle of bourbon for someone. I'm headed out to the liquor store in a few minutes. Here are the suggestions that I've received in the last few minutes, any input/additions?

Eagle Rare
Pappy Van Winkle
Makers '46'
Knob Creek

Thanks to all in advance!

Can't go wrong with makers.

A good $50 bottle is Bookers. Its in a wooden box.

Thanks, leaving now. Will check again when I get to the store.

TX is awesome as well.

Also do u know if hell be mixin it or on the rocks alone? If he's mixing it, u don't nessesarily need to get high dollar booze... Regular makers or wellers are my mixer choices. Just food for thought.

Ummmm. Dude...

Where the FUCK did you find a bottle of Pappy???

They are released once a year (usually early Nov), not even every state gets some, and they ALWAYS have a markup.

If you really can get some that's at the top of the "coveted" list for most everyone. You can surely get a comparable bourbon for less $$, but for badass gift givingclout...

I don't think he necessarily has found one. That was a suggestion he received.

Out of those, I'd go Eagle Rare.

If you want to get a single malt, I'd get a Balvenie or Macallan... each lower year can be had relatively inexpensive..

Idk what it is but I can't stomach scotch but love bourbon...

[ram57ta]

Aww hell whats wrong with Jack Daniels or Jim Beam Black?

[Craizie]

Eagle rare is my choice for low end.

[GrayStangGT]

Woodford would be my choice on bourbon

TX is awesome as well.

TX is pretty addicting

Was just about to post up TX as well. Polished off two bottles in the past 2 months of that stuff....

Exactly right.

I don't even know what that means. They didn't have Eagle Rare, but the staff at Specs recommended Noah's Mill over Makers 46, Knob, TX, and Woodford Double Oaked. Texted my buddy and he agreed ... ended up going with that.

Thanks again guys; I appreciate it.

May have to try that one out....
