As far as a regular "go to" its usually Turkey 101, Four Roses or Weller Special Reserve if I can find it...I admittedly really like Bulleit but its some corporate bullchit so I dont buy it anymore

Not worth it anymore IMO.Never tried Eagle Rare, but now I gotta hunt for a bottle. Buffalo Trace is nice too, not sure how I forgot because that's always on rotation.

Scotch is an acquired taste too - I was always on the fence about it then I took a trip to Scotland with two of my friends, we tried from all over the countryside. There are plenty that are mild, almost like an Irish, all the way up to the big peat monsters people think of as "Scotch". Check out a Speyside Scotch (group of distilleries along the river Spey, all smooth and drinkable) such as Glenfiddich sometime, tasty stuff.

Just left my local spot. Decided to stop in and try to sweet talk the owner into ordering me a (personal) bottle of Eagle Rare on his next order - he wasn't having any of it
Had a quick glass, snapped a couple pics.

I'm happy to see this thread, I love talking booze. If anyone is interested, I've got a open ******** group going as well called "The Whisky Buzz"
I'm a huge fan of US whiskies which comprises the bulk of my booze bunker but love to talk and try anything from all over the world.

Woodford Reserve is outstanding. Bought the PVW 23 when it was only $250. Still have the bottle. Unbelievably good.

But if you drink woodford neat I think you’d like Irish whiskeys too (typically have less mash flavour (all barley) but better finishing from their barrels). Jamesons is actually a good cheap whiskey (barley in used bourbon cask the finished in a sherry cask) and redbreast is a nice step up (personally love knappogue the most!in the cheaper price
range).
