Best bourbon?

I noticed there are threads for scotch and vodka so we need one for bourbon too.
What do you think is the best bourbon? I can't pick just one but I think that buffalo trace and Elijah Craig are both very good, especially at ~$30 for a fifth.

Booker's then Knob Creek. Beam's Choice if money is tight.

Pappy VanWinkle 20 yr. old, if money is no object. Rowen's Creek is good and reasonable at ~$40. I need to try the Eagle rare. Happy Holidays!!

Makers Mark is my favorite. Jack Daniels is not bourbon. It is Tennessee sippin' whiskey. :-)

I've been a scotch guy for a long time (and still am), but have recently been "turned on" to the the merits of fine American whiskey. I am loving the "Antique Series" bottled by Buffalo Trace:

William Larue Weller
Geirge T. Stagg
Thomas H Handy Sazerac
Sazerac 18

And, the Van Winkle's:

Pappy Van Winkle Family Reserve
Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye

Next up is the Parker's Heritage 27

Enjoy!
