Best bourbon?

I noticed there are threads for scotch and vodka so we need one for bourbon too.
What do you think is the best bourbon? I can't pick just one but I think that buffalo trace and Elijah Craig are both very good, especially at ~$30 for a fifth.

Makers Mark and Blanton's get my vote!

The 10 year Eagle Rare might be the greatest value out there at $25 a bottle. The 17 year Eagle Rare is really special but I think the price has jumped to over $100. I think I paid $65 for a bottle a few years ago. The biggest complement I've received is when some of my Scotch friends reluctantly tried some and didn't reject it!

Basil Hayden is my all time favorite. But, hey, Makers Mark, Blanton's, Van Ripple, the single batch Wild Turkey and Jack Daniels are all on my shelf---in fact, I'm having a JD now...Silver Select or something like that or is it Rare Breed????

Never had Eagle Rare. The 17 yr stuff sounds really good. Think that will be a xmas present to myself!! Thanks for the link.

Here's to you.
