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.

Slightly sweet and yummy over ice with some branch.

12 year old, straight up. Too good.
Pappy Van Winkle 23-year old is the "best". I suspect those making other suggestions above have not tried it, as it costs c. $220 a bottle.
Makers Mark is good. My favorite is Bushmills, Irish Whiskey. (I guess that means it's not bourbon?). It's amazing how many movies there are where the characters are drinking Bushmills, almost always out of Baccarat Harmonie tumblers.....(????)
