Under $30?
I have had expensive, and it is great! Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban, The Macallan 18, ect Fantastic! Usually worth the money But, just like beer, I have my expensive fancy micro brews and my homebrew, and I have just a generic, cheaper, but still good, regular beer. For me it is Forty Creek Barrel Select. A Canadian whisky. Smooth, nice flavor. Very drinkable. Usually about $20 a bottle. What is your go to "cheap" whiskey/bourbon/scotch if you have one?

Bulleit or Buffalo Trace.
If you can stretch that to about $33, Elmer T Lee single barrel. But I can't find that in OH, just KY. ETA: haven't found a cheap Scotch I like but I'd be open to suggestions.. |

For real "cheap" Beam or Evan. My favorites are in the next tier up--MM, BT, KC, Bulliet, Woodford, etc. Cheers.

Glenmorangie A ten year old single-malt highland scotch that is actually pretty good. It is the best selling Scotch in Scotland. A bottle can usually be had for around $30. |

After convincing myself that cheap bourbons are just as good, I went and bought a bottle of Woodford Reserve and it was so good I almost accidentally the whole fifth in one sitting. So be careful out there.

However, it is my duty to inform everyone that for around $40, Copper Fox Rye is the best whiskey on the planet. The problem is getting it, since they don't ship it anywhere. It has a better flavor than any whiskey I have ever tasted. |

Jameson, Jack Daniels
That is what I order when I'm out. I don't buy it for the house. New Amsterdam Gin is what I drink around the house. $25 a handle  |

Try the 2 Star bourbon, found it at Total Wine. Not as good as Buffalo Trace but when you need to pinch pennies it is pretty good.

It's slightly outside the "Under $30" dictate, but Balvenie 12-year Doublewood can be had for under $40 if you shop around.
It's my everyday Scotch.

Here is a other good budget single malt. It about $40.
My favorite at 50-60 is Dalmore 12. OP, you mentioned you like Macallan 18. Try the Glenlivet 21 sometime. 30 dollars cheaper and I like it a lot more. |

Depends on your definition of cheap.
Dollar for dollar, I would go with Old Grand Dad - Bottled in Bond. For a little more, I would go with Buffalo Trace. |
