Old Forester 1920 is my favorite.
Four Roses small batch select is very good and inexpensive too.
Anyone have Rye suggestions?

Just tried Wolcott for the first time. Made in the Blanton's distillary. Only $5 more than Buffalo Trace but has a smoother profile. I will be back for more.

Whistle Pig and Angel’s Envy are decent ones that are not hard to find.

Rittenhouse straight 100 proof is one of my faves.

Oban

if you can get hold of it.
It has a slightly salty taste that's just unique

I agree, also solid choice Talisker without braking the bank account
For blended single malts Monkey Shoulder is smooth (y)

Another vote for Buffalo Trace as a good entry. Eagles Rare if I want to move up with some spice. But do love the smoothness of Blanton's
I remember when I could walk into almost any liquor store and buy Blanton’s off the shelf for under $50. Those days are over. By limiting the supply and hyping the brand price is skyrocketing and almost impossible to get. Sort of like a Rolex Submariner.

woodford Double Oaked. Since Blanton's has become ridiculous to get, unavailable or way overpriced, The double Oaked is my favorite replacement.
