My dad bought a fifth of this for us to enjoy over christmas and have yet to give it a try. Any comments? How nice is it? It's also known as Rare Breed.

I've only had this stuff once, but I remember liking it. If you like bourbon, you'll definitely like this. I've been more on a Scotch kick lately, but I'm meaning to make it back to bourbon.

its not bad but as far as higher end bourbons go it is one of my least fav. If you aren't from kentucky you will probably like it.

Are you from KY? Is there anyway we could make a trade, I really want to get another bottle of Buffalo Trace- Elmer T. Lee Reserve, but dont want to drive down there.

This is one of my favorite bourbons. It's smooth enough to drink straight despite the ludicrously high alcohol content.

Yeah, there are quite a few right around that at 100. You got the Van Winkles (http://www.oldripvanwinkle.com/newbs/vw/website3.nsf/wProducts?readForm&t=Products) which are pretty decent. or you could go baker's (http://www.thedrinkshop.com/products/nlpdetail.php?prodid=2087). You can even go to 127 with Booker's (http://www.internetwines.com/mb311504.html). It's a little too warm for me and brings out the anger, but to each his own.

Personally out of easy to find bourbons, I recommend Basil-Hayden (http://www.internetwines.com/mb311564.html), four roses (http://www.fourroses.us/main.php), and woodford reserve (http://www.woodfordreserve.com/home.asp) when I feel like something warm.

Maker's Mark is good but only for sipping with a cigar.
