The 24 4roses LE was a big disappointment for me too. I tried it with a chace to buy, and i passed and not sad at all. To me it tasted a bit better than small batch select but nothing crazy, id rather have any of the single barrel picks i grabbed through the year over the le

Benchmark is so good for the price point. I put a wood spiral in a Benchmark full proof for 3 months and it's really close to Stagg flavor profile. For the price and availability I'd take Benchmark. 🎉🎉🎉

IMO, I think Crown Royal has cheapened up their blends from one that has drank CR for 30+ years. I don’t care for it any more. Buffalo Trace, I feel it is overhyped! Not bad but not as good as many think it is. Benchmark, a new discovery for me. But, I have been buying the Single Barrel, above your proof point. As far as my daily bourbon, again above your proof point, it is Old Forester for $26.

For me, Green River Wheated has loads of burn. Benchmark small batch was kind of bland. Early times was a tad bit too much burn. 1792 Small Batch has great flavor but gives me instant acid reflux. Elijah Craig Small Batch lacks a sweet flavor profile, same for Maker's mark, Woodford Reserve (including the double oaked) and Bernheim Wheat Whiskey. Mellow corn is kind of bland compared to Benchmark Bonded. Gentleman Jack has a weird unburned charcoal flavor. Buffalo Trace and WL Weller Special Reserve are my low proof kings. Mid proof, I like Bardstown High Wheat and Redemption Wheated. For budget in mid proof, Benchmark Bonded tastes way better than Benchmark Small Batch. I still need to try Bardstown Bonded, Ben Holladay Soft Red Wheat BiB, regular Knob Creek 9yr, and regular Larceny Small Batch.

Interesting list, the most important one for me was the Babe Ruth. I was thinking about buying it the other day. I'm glad I didn't. I think it was 189 or 199 at my store. Needless to say I'm fortunate that I bought the Midnights Winter Dram instead (I know others are saying it's not worth the 179). Either way there was a lot of overpriced bourbon this year.

Agree on Jim Beam Winter Reserve - what a ripoff. Very disappointed. Same with KC B/R, man what a let down. Haven't opened my MM Heart Release yet - we'll see. And of course I've never gotten my hands on a Stagg - I'd be happy with 24B if I could get it. Never seen the other stuff you didn't like.
