I recently tried Barrell Bourbon; found it at Costco for $69.00 I believe.
This is impressive and not for the faint of heart.
Cask Strength, 113.9 proof and it is on the list previously posted.

Anybody tried Tin Cup whiskey?
Weller 12 and Antique 107 have been released in other parts of Tennessee... but my understanding is that even Middle and West TN are different schedules.... so (?) it's likely that East TN could be another unique schedule??
good luck in the hunt, gentlemen!

I need to make another trip to Kentucky to stock up on inexpensive but really good bourbons that are not available here in Florida. Heaven Hill green label is 6 years old and 90 proof. It is charcoal filtered using the Lincoln County process like Jack Daniels. J. T. S. Brown Bottled in Bond is 100 proof and does not carry and age statement.
If I served either of these bourbons out of an unmarked decanter you would swear they were much more expensive. Either of them can be had for less than $15.

Love this thread, just getting into Bourbon myself and stocking up for the holidays. I picked up a Michters this past weekend. Haven't tried if yet, but it came recommended from a friend. Also picked up a bottle of Calumet 12. Not sure if that one will be worth the money, but it was another recommendation.
The Weller 12 lottery was in Ohio about 6 weeks ago; basically no chance for a bottle. Weller Antique can be found and in my opinion is very close to 12. They are what basically would become Pappy with another 10 years in the barrel.
Buffalo trace can be found and is my everyday sipper. It's as good a $22 bottle as there is.
Another limited release out now is Makers 101, buy it if you see it.
Love the Bulleit Rye, Willet, Buffalo Trace, Weller Antique, Weller 12 (favorite). Woodford Reserve, Jefferson’s, Angel Envy (finished in Caribbean Rum Cask, McKenna ( my number 2), Four Roses Single Barrel.

I like Weller 107 better than 12. If you can find a full proof get it but then again full proof is going for well north of $300. Sometimes you can luck up and find it for retail. Same for 12 very rarely will you find it for retail. If you like higher proof stuff try Jack Daniels single barrel - barrel proof. It is very tasty but a little warm. It’s bottled from 125-140 proof depending on the batch.
Blantons, Jefferson’s small batch, Four Roses small batch and Bookers. My favorite is Rock Hill Farms but it’s difficult to find. It’s not a Bourbon but make sure to add to your bucket list, Midleton Barry Crocket Legacy single pot still Irish Whiskey, it’s exceptional.
I dare anyone to blind taste test Ezra Brooks and Benchmark against topshelf.
I usually stay with rye, but I really like the Bulleit bourbon. Smooth, and it satisfies.
