Been looking at Tullamore and Kilbeggan which are in my price range, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I don't know much about Bourbon or Scotch, but my knowledge of Irish whiskey rivals what I know about Wisconsin beer. ... Sláinte!

Rebel Yell-can't beat it for the $$. Won't hurt ya unless you are a yankee. Then all bets off...

Might try Yukon Jack. If you want swill, it mixes well with Dr. Pepper.

Swill? Try the "Fightin' Cock", 103-proof nastiness in a bottle. Also, any whisky that comes in a plastic jug.

Still a fan of Jim Beam here... when I feel bourbon.

Picked up a bottle of this and wow, was really happy with the product. For about $20 a bottle, this was a steal. I'd definitely go back and pick up a few more. [img]http://www.totalwine.com/_static/webupload/731/1_115780175_4_3.jpg[/img]

Angel's Share is my affordable favorite, and I drink it slow, so it lasts a while.

But, I've only done a few, so I can't pretend to be an expert. And, actually, bourbon has fallen in my preferred hard liquors. It's pretty much scotch and cognac for me. Tequila, vodka, and others don't work for me. Good call on the Evan Williams. I also enjoy that one and the price is definitely right for about $20 for a 750ml. I really enjoy scotch as well, but seems rather pricey when I look for the ones I know and enjoy. If there's any good buys out there, please...let's hear 'em. Balvenie and Glenfarclas are two of my "go to" when I have a few extra bucks to spend.
