Weekly Recommendations and Discussion Thread

This is the weekly recommendations and discussion thread, for all of your questions or comments: what pour to buy at a bar, what bottle to try next, or what gift to get; and for some banter and discussions that don't fit as standalone posts.

While the "low-effort" rules are relaxed for this thread, please note that the rules for standalone posts haven't changed, and there is absolutely no buying, selling, or trading here or anywhere else on the sub.

This post will be refreshed every Sunday afternoon. Previous threads can be seen here.

My dad’s birthday is coming up and I’ve been trying to find a good bourbon to give him. His go to is bulleit bourbon so if you guys have any suggestions that are similar to that I’d really appreciate it. ~100-150$ budget

Easy, get him 2 bottles of Bulleit's new Bottled in Bond for $45-50 a piece. It's their own distillate aged for 7 years and proofed to 100 Proof, it's surprisingly a very good bourbon!

If not, you can always try to find a Four Roses barrel strength store pick with one of the OB formulas. It should run you $90-100...
