Best bourbon to buy as a gift? (US to UK)

jeffkeys · October 9 2017 at 5:12PM

Hi everyone,

I'm traveling from the US to the UK this year, and I need to find a bourbon that would make a good gift for someone. Does anyone have recommendations? I'm looking for something not too cheap or too expensive (maybe in the $60 to $80 range), and it would be great if it's something I can find fairly easily in the US but might be a little harder to get a hold of in the UK.

I'm not sure what is available in the UK, but Bookers is always a good gift, as it comes in a nice wooden box.

Col EH Taylor can be a little harder to find (and I'm assuming impossible in the UK), but is a GREAT bourbon that also comes in a tube, like a lot of scotch does.

Booker's, Baker's or the Maker's Mark 46

How about Jack Daniels Single Barrel Select....94proof.

or

Jack Daniel's Single Barrel-Barrel Proof....with a little extra ABV kick!!! 132proof.

Being that it's close to Christmas your liquor store should have these in gift sets...with a flask, glasses, or....
