I occasionally enjoy a good Bourbon like Knob Creek but generally stick to Scotch. I haven't drank any Jim Beam since that night in college.

I have run the gambit of single malt and blended scotches from Scotland, American bourbons and I'm currently exploring Canada's small batch whiskies from Canadian Club. All have different features that effect taste. I'm leaning toward the single malts but the price point of Scotch is an issue. Enjoy your search.

Bulleit. Haven't found anything smoother. Sipping some right now.
You are a man of good taste. Blanton's is the bourbon of the Kentucky Derby, and one I enjoy on rare occasions. I have about half a bottle on hand. I got a new Smith today, maybe I'll have some.

I, too, am a man of good taste--I just can't afford to indulge it very often. I do swill a fair amount of Jim Beam basic.

Yes. I love bourbon. I have toured all of the distilleries here in kentucky.
My cousin and I are going to do that very soon. Don't know if the distilleries are open in the fall. She will be here the first weekend in October for the Pumpkin Run in Owensville. Maybe we can do it then.

Jack Daniel's IS Tennessee Whiskey NOT Bourbon which is from Kentucky and an entirely different recipe.
I like Rye Bourbons like Weller.

I drink a little wine or beer from time to time, but I'm not much of a hardware guy.
However: When it comes time to fight a cold or upper respiratory infection or strep throat, I reach for the bottle of ordinary Jim Beam and a sack of fresh lemons, and I drink hot whiskey sours until the invading forces are burned to oblivion by the citric acids and alcohol.
I can usually tell that it is safe to knock off the sours when I can't hear a wheeze when I draw breath.
I just finished this regimen a few days ago. I successfully knocked down one of the worst summer colds I have had in ages, but it took me nearly three weeks to do it.

How did you feel after those three weeks?
Pretty happy and pain free, now that you mention it.
I also ended up with a couple of guns that I don't clearly remember how I came to own them.

Good grief, what a bunch!
I've drunk my share. Currently I'm sippin' on some Jameson Irish.
