My name is Josh, not Joey (surprise), and I reside in Central Ohio. I have been grilling since I could drive, and smoking for around 15 years. Over the past couple of years I have gotten more into just cooking, and really enjoy sous vide and the flat top. I find myself experimenting with different foods and new ways of cooking as an outlet to work stress. I use every piece of equipment I own regularly, with the exception of the electric smoker. That only gets brought out on occasion to make jerky.
My favorite beverage is bourbon. I typically have at least 8-10 bottles open at any given time. While I have favorites, I enjoy sampling new and different varieties.

Buffalo Trace since you have a few of the others the distillery makes. For the price, it’s a go to for me when I can find it. I’ve also enjoyed Angel’s Envy, however, I won’t buy it now due to the price point. It’s near $60 and I don’t think it’s at that point. But I do enjoy it.

I'll second the Buffalo Trace, if you can find it. I picked up 6 bottles when I was in Dallas last month, as I can't get it here. Larceny is another great one, if you've got access to it.

Huskee it’s not $60 bourbon. Not even close. When it first came out it was $40. I thought that was good. But, i do like the ever so subtle sweetness to it. I’ve asked my buddy to use one of his aging casks to try this type of aging - port wine for some time, followed by a bourbon, to see what comes of it. All that said, I haven’t bought a bottle in years - there’s better bourbon out there

@PackersOwner12 - I'm a big fan of both Heaven Hill and Buffalo trace. I'd say 90% of the bourbon I buy is one of their lines. Heaven Hill just started shipping their bonded to Florida. A good drink at a good price.

Old Forrester Bottled in Bond, and probably any of the other higher end Old Forrester's, but that's the only one I've tried so far. I'm curious what the store is that's running the deal.

If you make any trips in to Indiana, they have a unique offering from Buffalo Trace- the Benchmark series. Now, don't get me wrong, "Benchmark", the standard version that's been around forever, isn't too great, but it's cheap and decent for being so cheap. However, they have a special 5-bottle series that, at least currently, is only sold in Indiana. They have (from low price to high) Top Floor, Small Batch, Single Barrel, Bonded, and Full Proof. They are all great, my personal 2 top faves are Bonded and Full Proof. They are WAYYYY better than the standard Benchmark. And they are still <$20 for most.

So I picked up a bottle of Basil Hayden's Toast last night. Haven't tried it yet, though most toasted bourbon's I've had are very good. Anyone had this yet?
