I’ve got a mate whos a big fan of Bourbon. He’s tried all the standard brands like Buffalo Trace, JD, Jim Beam and Wild Turkey.

I want to get him a bottle for Xmas of something he might not have tried before, something I can say was recommended by Americans as a good bourbon. Doesn’t need to be some weird flavour like Red Stag, just old fashioned American bourbon that maybe flies under the radar in other countries.

      It’s worth noting that four roses actually exports a lot so they might be able to get that outside the states

        Yeah we were gifted some here in Aus. Afraid I don’t get the bourbon thing. I’m a whisky girl but bourbon just tastes… Wrong? We have another really nice bottle of it (name escapes me) that we were also gifted. I’m afraid to open it in case I hate it.

      One of my favorites to get when traveling with family, because it’s available almost everywhere, and is consistently great for the price.
