I don't mean to be snippy. I'm simply not a fan of these pop up so called craft bourbons that don't even distill that are nothing more than a fancy name and package. At least credit to Costco for largely stating where the liquid came from. They are even buying up ancient barrels on the open market. I saw a 50 year whiskey "from the Glenlivet distillery" under the Kirkland name.
I like Basil Hayden. I also like Woodford and Knob Creek, but to be honest I'm more of a scotch fan if I'm doing something in the whiskey world.

I did NOT like Blanton's...gave me a pounding headache after only one.

Agreed on the whiskies that are all marketing...for some reason I thought that was just a vodka phenomenon. Costco scotch (the Macallan 16) is my standby.
