I’ve got a mate whos a big fan of Bourbon. He’s tried all the standard brands like Buffalo Trace, JD, Jim Beam and Wild Turkey.

I want to get him a bottle for Xmas of something he might not have tried before, something I can say was recommended by Americans as a good bourbon. Doesn’t need to be some weird flavour like Red Stag, just old fashioned American bourbon that maybe flies under the radar in other countries.

    I’m a fan of Elijah Craig, personally. I’m not a drinker, but that’s my go-to when I decide I want a drink

      To me it’s the best value for price bourbon I’ve found, and it’s very good. I haven’t tried very many of their higher end or limited offerings though.

        I got one of their limited runs from a buddy about two years ago. I can’t really say it was better than the standard. A little “hotter”, even, swish which isn’t something I tend to prefer.
