I’m definitely a Four Roses small batch type gal my husband and I really enjoy it….I’m also a huge fan of 1792 small batch …Looking forward to trying others as well
These are great staples in any collection. My personal fave is the Old Fo,. I would add the HH6 Green label, but I understand why it isn’t up there. Great lineup
I’m new to bourbon (started trying it about three months ago), I feel like Four Roses small batch is the one that got me hooked. I really like Four Roses, some of the best nose on bourbons; even their single barrels. I want to try a bottle of small batch select next but for the price I could almost get two bottles of regular small batch.
I agree with all of these. I have not had the JTS yet. I think you two should add Larceny small batch 92 proof to the list. Fantastic sipper for under $30
Old Forester 100 and Wild Turkey 101 are not allowed to run out here. Still have half a bottle of Elijah Small Batch, most of a Buffalo Trace, and I have an Evan W. BIB, but it seems to be bit too much nut for me most of the time. Old Granddad 114 and 1792 Small Batch will likely join the shelf by this fall.
@@bourbonkingdom Appreciate the thought, and glad to be a subscriber. Good vids so far. I'm going to have to apologetically and respectfully pass on the award, as I shy from the Facebook. I'd like to pass the honor to another worthy commenter and just be grateful for the camaraderie. Cheers/Salute to all.
@@scenicdrive725 Thanks for letting us know and we will pass on the news to the next one in order. And thank you so much for the love and support to the channel.
Old grand dad 114 would be my favorite from these. Another great value under 30 is the new Costco Kirkland small batch by Bardstown 1792. 20 dollars for a 1 liter and its pretty good.
Evan Williams BIB, EC Small batch Store Pick., Sazerac, Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, Wild Turkey 101, high West Double Rye, Old Forester 100 are some of my picks for under 30
I have most of those in my collection, a couple ET BOBs because they're hard to find here in Illinois, Love my 1792 everything even the high proof VOBs always WT 101 ,JTS Brown getting some well deserved attention these days and I would have included a new player in the lineup MPGs Eighth and Sand, sadly what I thought was on the top of my under 30 list was Henry McKenna 10 year but that went to hell with the SF Spirits award a few years back and I don't mix with the exception of an occasional rye old fashioned or a mint Julip on the big day so all of these juices are fine just the way god intended. Have a great weekend.
When I was younger I always respected a bar that had the even cheaper ET in the rail, despite the fact it’s not really bourbon 😂 114 and 101 all day long. 1792 as well. I just missed the Westport full proof pick because I sat on it for a week 😢 The bourbon thing is crazy these days. Thanks for helping me understand what I’m up against
Great guys, who doesn't like a Best Bourbon under show!! In your area you can get classic bourbons under $30 - Woodford, Makers 46, Knob Creek & even Russell's 10 which is one of the best value pours going around. Keep up the good work cheers.
Buffalo Trace is my bourbon of choice, however lately it getting harder and harder to find and rhe price is over $40. with tax. I need to find a new favorite.
Rare Breed is my favorite but it’s 60 by me. Of these I love 114, it’s close to my favorite in many ways but half the price. Strongly recommend OF 100, WT101. In NJ hard to find Early Times, EW BIB, of Buffalo Trace. One store had BT for 55. I have a bottle I got for 35 and I think it’s below the ones recommended above. EW single barrel is appealing because I like EW 1783 but it’s not available in NJ this summer very easily. I definitely dislike Elijah Craig compared to others, something funky on the palate and taste for me that is less evident in Evan Williams. I have had 1792 in the past and recall liking it, looking to try full Proof.
I mostly skip the sub $30 bottles and buy Rare Breed as a “budget” shelfer. Not as cheap as these but I don’t mind paying the +$10-15 - probably my favorite all things considered bourbon
Old Forester 100 proof, Knob Creek 9yr 100 proof, and Elijah Craig Small Batch all 3 great bourbons under $30. Got to add Evan Williams 1783 and Makers Mark!
Nice list, guys. I have many of them. Can't find Early Times or OGD 114 in NY for awhile now. The OGD BiB is available tho and I prefer it much more than the WT101 w I find thin and harsh. Will chk out the EW Single Barrel. Never heard of the JTS but doesn't look widely available. (Totalwine shows only KY). And just an fyi, prices in Kentucky are much better than other parts of the country. Good stuff though, thx.

Love 4 Roses small batch too. It's very underrated IMO.
These are great staples in any collection. My personal fave is the Old Fo,. I would add the HH6 Green label, but I understand why it isn’t up there. Great lineup
I agree with Old Grand dad. I think it it better then most bourbons over 100 dollars.
Great list. EC and BT for sure. Need to try the OGD. Thanks!
1792 is ridiculous
Great list! Early times Bib is my go to but the Evan Williams Sib is what got me into bourbon

Great list guys. I'd say ET bib is my favorite of your list but would add Cooper's Craft 100. Keep up the good work!
Coopers craft for sure
I agree on Coopers Craft, love it.
Elijah Craig small batch, especially some of the store picks, is great and Old Fo 100 is also an excellent pour!
I agree with all of these. I have not had the JTS yet. I think you two should add Larceny small batch 92 proof to the list. Fantastic sipper for under $30
I love EW Single barrel. Great choice.
I’d go with wild turkey 101, best bang for your buck!
Got me a bottle of J. T. S. Brown In Bardstown, Kentucky on January 27 for only $10.95! What a bargain!
Solid picks!! Keep on keeping on.
My personal favorite is Heaven Hill Green Label 6 Year. Great bourbon and a bottle will usually run $10-15
Old forester 100 is my favorite for cocktails
Early Times is always solid! Love the content so far fellas, keep em coming! Cheers 🥃
JB Double Oaked is great for the price. One of my go to neat pours.
Keep up the great work fellas. Excellent content. Elijah Craig is pretty solid.
Old Forester 100 and Wild Turkey 101 are not allowed to run out here. Still have half a bottle of Elijah Small Batch, most of a Buffalo Trace, and I have an Evan W.

Great picks, need to pick up JTS next week while I'm in KY
Had a few from that list but for me 101 is my favorite. Great flavor and consistency! Early times is also great!
Old Grand Dad Bottled-In-Bond... GREAT STUFF!
Old grand dad for me
Never bothered to try the Evan Williams SiB. I'll pick it up.
Old grand dad 114 would be my favorite from these. Another great value under 30 is the new Costco Kirkland small batch by Bardstown 1792. 20 dollars for a 1 liter and its pretty good.
OGD and EC. Solid list.
Great choices
Evan Williams BIB, EC Small batch Store Pick., Sazerac, Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, Wild Turkey 101, high West Double Rye, Old Forester 100 are some of my picks for under 30
Knob Creek
My favorites are WT101 and OGD114
Big fan of the Old Forester. Glad it made the cut
Solid list. 1792 and ET BiB Would certainly be on my list too.
I have every one of those bottles in my collection. Great values all around!

Terrific review gentlemen, cheers 🥃
You'll have to add Beards Town to that list.
I’d go with the WT 101 here most days.
Good meeting you all the other day at Evergreen Nulu

Early Times BiB! I just wish I can find regularly here in California.
I’d go with the 1792.
Knob Creek and Makers Mark are great bourbons under 30$ but that Evan Williams Single Barrel is something special!
Wild turkey 101 hands down
Buffalo Trace is my bourbon of choice, however lately it getting harder and harder to find and rhe price is over $40. with tax. I need to find a new favorite.
Old grad dad hands down
Good line up. I think Evan Williams has some of the best bourbon for the money from the bottom shelf all the way up to the 23 yr.
So I haven't had any of those before except for the BT and 1792 lol. But I think Bulleit would have been a great choice.
I'd have to say WSR or jonny drum for my Under 30, your list is damn good tho. Maybe even the heaven hill 6 year.
Different flavors from this selection. Enter draw for me!
Four Roses, Larceny, Bulleit...
Great video. For me it’s the daily drinker Buffalo Trace.
Your show makes me thirsty! Keep up the great work!
Woodford or OF 86 are my drinks of choice.
I wish I could find Early Times BIB, I can’t find it anywhere in NY and CT
A store pick of buffalo trace is my favorite.
Rare Breed is my favorite but it’s 60 by me. Of these I love 114, it’s close to my favorite in many ways but half the price. Strongly recommend OF 100, WT101. In NJ hard to find Early Times, EW BIB, of Buffalo Trace. One store had BT for 55. I have a bottle I got for 35 and I think it’s below the ones recommended above.

Proof.
Have you had the Early Times in the new bottle? If so, what are your thoughts?
Hard to beat elijah Craig store picks, 12yr old at times
Evan Williams 1783 is a nice pour.
Old forester or 1792 small batch is the best.
Elijah Craig all the way
I like the green bottle.
Go with the Wild turkey it is a classic.
Benchmark 8
Why am I the only who's gets a bad aftertaste on the old forester
Can’t go wrong with Buffalo trace!!
Elijah Craig!
I mostly skip the sub $30 bottles and buy Rare Breed as a “budget” shelfer. Not as cheap as these but I don’t mind paying the +$10-15 - probably my favorite all things considered bourbon
It’s hard to beat.
Old Forester 100 proof, Knob Creek 9yr 100 proof, and Elijah Craig Small Batch all 3 great bourbons under $30. Got to add Evan Williams 1783 and Makers Mark!
That Evan Williams BiB is the bourbon for any college kid to live off of lol.
My vote goes toward EC store pick.
EC or Evan Williams BiB. tough call for me
Elijah Craig
I have a bottle of Evan Williams BiB, haven’t opened it. I tried their single barrel and wasn’t a fan.
With it being a SiB I wonder if it might be a bad barrel? Also next time you are out if you can EC BiB I would give it a shot!
🔥🔥🔥
BT or JTS
David Nicholson somewhere in that range
Nice list, guys. I have many of them. Can't find Early Times or OGD 114 in NY for awhile now. The OGD BiB is available tho and I prefer it much more than the WT101 w I find thin and harsh. Will chk out the EW Single Barrel. Never heard of the JTS but doesn't look widely available. (Totalwine shows only KY). And just an fyi, prices in Kentucky are much better than other parts of the country. Good stuff though, thx.
Do a shot every time he says, literally 😅
I think Jim Beam is great.
Put me down for Old number 7.
I know a lot of people won't agree but I think the Evan Williams black label is better then the white label.
I think Knob Creek 9 year is better then most of these bottles.
Totally agree but it's over $30 - at least here in NY. I still think it's an amazing value.
Knob creek 9 year 100 proof
At 4:30 the fear is real!
Have you had Early Times in the new bottle with the screw cap? I'm hearing it's not as good.
