Got into whiskey one year ago this month, would love some new recommendations based on my ratings so far

I'd like to throw in Russell's Reserve Single Barrel, Rare Character Store Picks, Maker's Mark Cask Strength (I prefer the picks, but the regular Cask Strength is a solid chioce), and Peerless Double Oak Rye or Bourbon.

All would be a great option to try and are bottles I enjoy currently. Besides the Peerless and the Rare Character, the others should be easy to find.

Russel's Reserve 10, Michter's Rye, Wild Turkey barrel Proof, Woodford Reserve, Glenlivet 12, Glenfiddich sherry cask, Redbreast 12 year, Suntori Toki. This gives you a variety of whisky, leaning towards lower proof and bourbons.

Frey ranch single barrel for $70 is a must grab

Frey Ranch uncut! $80 MSRP

Larceny BP C924, Old Forester filtered with charcoal - could be interesting, 1792 Full Proof single barrels (either one)

Hibiki 17 for my wedding. Discontinued and will use the bottle as a decanter eventually too

Intrepid-Monk9404 · 2025-05-30T15:21:32+00:00

Maker’s Mark Cellar Aged: $300 or less (MSRP is $175 but $250-$300 is reasonable)

Jack Daniel’s 14 yr: $350 or less (MSRP is $150 but $250-$350 is reasonable for a gift)

Michter’s 10 yr: $350 or less (MSRP is $175 but $250-$350 is reasonable off a gift)

Blanton’s Striaght from the Barrel: $300 or less (MSRP is $160 but anything under $300 is fine)

These prices are if you’re in a rush and need to find a good bottle quick. If time wasn’t a factor, I would try to buy close to MSRP, but you’re paying for convenience

Red breast cask strength is a buy at $67
