Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

How did I not review this already? I will join the chorus, this is absolutely one of the best buys in bourbon. Bottom shelf pricing, but flavor approaching the top tier. It is everything a dependable bourbon should be: the corn sweetness balanced with the rye , some barrel char, a hint of old leather and a little brown sugar. At 90 proof it holds up well in cocktails, and is smooth enough to sip neat. No, not as complex as the true top tier bourbons; but, at 25% of the price, what reasonable person could argue.

I really like what LuxCo is doing. The EB and the RY100 are both exceptional values, and I'd put the RY100 up against just about any Wheater this side of Buffalo Trace and feel confident that it would be a winner. Add in the Old Ezra Barrel Proof and the solid David Nichols Reserve and they've got a very solid lineup.
