    Since we're in the saloon, what's your favorite bourbon?

    mine = Pappy Van Winkle if someone else is buying, Makers Mark or Knob Creek if I'm buying.

    anyone who votes Jack Daniels should lose posting privileges.

    Not a bourbon drinker. I guess Woodford just because I know the name from the race they sponsor on Derby day.

    Vintage 18 year old is by far my favorite. But it's something I'll only get once or twice a year. My everyday bourbon is Black Maple Hill or Basil Hayden. For mixing (I make a mind blowing Old-fashioned) I prefer Maker's Mark but have had occasion to use Bulleit.

    What a colossally stupid thing to say.

    If you've never had a good Manhattan or a good bourbon sour, you haven't lived. And, of course, there are those 100,000 spectators at every Kentucky Derby who know you're full of shit.

    Rebel Yell or Maker's Mark can't go wrong with either one.

    For a real treat, try Basil Hayden's or Woodford Reserve Distiller's Select. You'll be blown away.
