Jameson Whiskey = the best.

I know that it's rather pedestrian, but Jim Beam Black has never done me wrong.

Maker's Mark has gotten overpriced. I switched to Elijah Craig last year and haven't looked back. It's actually better than Maker's and significantly cheaper. Around $22 a fifth here in Birmingham.
Basil Hayden's is my choice for sippin whiskey.

You might get blasted for saying this from the Whiskey snobs but it's not bad. I like the flavor but it is more costly.
Jefferson Reserve is good
Buffalo Trace is good
Eagle Rare is good
Crown is not very good in my opinion. Makers Mark is ok.
Knob Creek is decent.
Woodford Reserve has a unique flavor. I like it personally

Makers is good for mixing. Not much for sipping when you consider your other options. And honestly for the price range, I like Jim Beam Black Label better.
Woodford is good as is Four Roses. Basil Hayden is light and spicy (a good spring/summer bourbon).
Obviously Blantons and Pappy Van Winkle are top notch but you're going to pay for the quality.
If you like bourbon you might want to try some of the ryes that are out right now too.

Woodford Reserve all day, every day. Eagle Rare single barrel is pretty good too. Blanton's is tGOAT though. You might end up dishing out $60 for a fifth of that, however.

Buffalo trace is nice. I also enjoy Bulleit.

Favorite small batch bourbons are Blantons, Knob Creek, Pappy Van Winkle.

knob creek, wood ford reserve, and 4 roses

What's a good bourbon whiskey for old fashioneds? I've done Makers and Wild Turkey 101 but I wanted to try some different whiskeys with them.
