I’ve got a mate whos a big fan of Bourbon. He’s tried all the standard brands like Buffalo Trace, JD, Jim Beam and Wild Turkey.
I want to get him a bottle for Xmas of something he might not have tried before, something I can say was recommended by Americans as a good bourbon. Doesn’t need to be some weird flavour like Red Stag, just old fashioned American bourbon that maybe flies under the radar in other countries.

Some good recommendations in this thread. You should give the following a try.
- Woodford Reserve Wheated. It’s very smooth and I think it’s the best value for money you can get. This is my personal favorite right now
- Michters Small Batch. Good and robust flavor
- Weller. If you can find it, but you probably won’t.
- Angels Envy is very good and smooth
- Four Roses Small Batch
- Penelope Toasted is alright. I enjoyed it, but it wasn’t wow value for the price. It’s a good bourbon though
- 1792 is good.
- Rabbit Hole is good
- Blade and Bow is good
