Forbes article discussing bourbon for the NY international spirits competition.  I plan on sampling some as I enjoy whiskey, bourbon and rye but can’t claim that I have any great knowledge of these spirits.  

The World’s Best Bourbon From The NY International Spirits Competition

You're going to get as many opinions as there are bourbons. It's all about what you like, what tastes good to you.
I will say a lot of the spirits listed in that article are not true bourbons. Texas Straight Wheated Bourbon Whiskey is an example.

Try a bunch and buy what you like. Also just because something is expensive, doesn't mean it's better tasting to you.

Cheers

My take:

There are premium bourbons that I don’t like and cheaper ones that I really like.

You need to find the ones you like and ignore the “experts”

Local likker store was sampling new riff the other day when I was in. It was very good, but I'm still finding weller SR for $26/750ml so I'm stocking up

Evan Williams Single Barrel is back on the shelf in my area.

But, it isn't Buffalo Trace, so it will sit. (Lucky for me.)
