        I was referring to you throwing out the bottle of Garrison. I agree fully though, Garrison doesn't come close to any of the top bourbons mentioned here and most cost less.

          I'm actually somewhat of a regular at the Yellow Rose Distillery on Friday's/Saturdays. Just post up at the bar, and people watch, drink, and catch up with whatever friend I'm there with.

          I have 2 bottles of Whitmeyer's limited run also sitting there at home waiting.....

                            I am a BOURBON/WHISKEY man ALL the way! I drink the "cheap" stuff these days because I save ALL the $$ I can to help my 3 son's. Hell...it all does the same thing and serves the purpose...rela************

                                Great thread. I don't understand all of these Texas brands - I had the TX whiskey and it was good, for the price. The others, like Garrison, look too d**n expensive. No way they could be that good.

                                To me it's all about taste vs. price. Eagle Rare used to be a $22 bottle (I remember), now it has shot into the 30s. The secret got out, somehow :-).

                                Basil: For nice occasions (as in, what a crazy day at work, isn't it nice that I made it home alive?)
                                Blanton's: For a really nice occasion.
                                Eagle Rare: Great value but the secret is out.
                                Four Roses Small Batch: I have heard the single barrel is too inconsistent, don't know for sure. Good value.
                                Rowan's: I had one great bottle, one bad bottle. Go figure.
                                Noah's Mill (big brother to Rowan's) - Good but I have had better for the money.
                                Buffalo Trace: I don't care for this one. Odd since there are others from that distillery that I like.
                                Bulleit: Good, esp for the price.
                                Bulleit Rye: Really good, for the price.
                                Old Overholt: Good in an old fashioned.
                                Knob: Meh. Take it or leave it.
                                Maker's 49: Yes, please.
                                Maker's: At a wedding or other occasion with an open bar? Absolutely. Not my first, second, or third choice at the liquor store though.
                                Angel's Envy: I recently returned from a week in Asia where Scotch was the only thing available. Upon arrival to DFW this was the first whiskey I found. Man it was good.

                                Interesting picture of how various whiskeys are related to each other:
                                Saved for the next trip to specs.
                                I have always been a scotch drinker,but it appears I need to broaden my horizons
