Rye is good too. Watch out for the Elijah Craig Rye gift sets this year. It comes with an amazing spiced old fashioned mix
I bought one last year.
Pretty good even though I don't really use the old fashioned syrup.
Latest buys:
Old Grand Dad 117-Good but not great.
Blanton's-Very good but not really worth the hype nor the premium over ER 10.
Heaven Hill BIB-Good but not great.
Larceny Barrel Proof-Very good to excellent. Great sipper. Could use a small sliver of ice to reach it's full potential.

What is some recommendations for someone who hasn't (ive tried maybe 2 in my life and they tasted like ass) tried bourbon but wants to?
Start with a wheated 80 proof.
Larceny, Buffalo Trace or Eagle Rare 10yr would be my suggestions.
Pour a small amount and add a tiny sliver of ice and swirl it before you sip.
Enjoy!
