I did some searching of the forums with no luck. In your opinion, what is the best bargain bourbon? Best value, most bang for buck, etc

I'm feeling Elijah Craig right now. I can't beat it at 27 a bottle.

Like you said Elijah Craig... or... Buffalo Trace. Even cheaper and I think tastes as good if not better.

Buffalo Trace has been my go to bourbon for years......smooth taste with a slight afterburn and fruity finish....at $36 it doesn't get much better. however, at $27, Elijah may be the prophet to drink with.

Mithrander... I'm sorry you pay so much man. That's how much I pay for Woodford. Never spent more than $26 on Buffalo Trace...But that seems odd....

Old Charter is usually a good value. George Dickel is another option

I just cried a little. Went to the exchange on base (civilian don't have privileges) and they had Woodford for 22.50 no tax, Knob Creek Small Batch for under 25, and buffalo trace for like 22ish.

Gonna have to find me a vet to make a booze run tomorrow 😉

Mithrandir, those are both tops for me (particularly the Macallan)... it depends on my mood whether it's bourbon or scotch for me I suppose.

By me makers mark is 25 a bottle and that's a very solid bourbon.
