To be honest, bourbon has such a constricted flavour profile and consistent quality regulations that I'm not surprised Leandro can't tell much of a difference between them here. Two scotches or mezcals can taste like they're from different planets due to cask influence or varietals, but bourbon at its base is majority corn plus new American oak, the flavours are going to be caramel, vanilla, apple, wood spice, cherry, corn more or less. And this isn't entirely a knock, that narrowness and strict definition means it's absolutely delicious even at the cheaper price points: I'd much rather enjoy a cheap bourbon than just about any cheap example of another spirit out there.

Technically, they all would be good for cocktails, depending on what you’re looking to highlight in the drink. Remember, a good balanced cocktail is the sum of its parts; not just one single ingredient. Each of these bourbons have their own characteristics that can be enhanced/tamped down with sweeteners, bitters, fruit, and/or citrus. After doing this professionally for twenty years, I’m a firm believer that there is no “best” version of bourbon/vodka/tequila/gin/rum/etc. for any specific cocktail. It all comes down to your tastes and what you want to bring out in the finished drink. Also, a good rule of thumb: never waste expensive/high-end spirits on a mixed drink with more than three ingredients. You’re just flushing money down the toilet, since you won’t really be tasting the special characteristics of that spirit in the final drink. That means don’t waste reposado or añejo tequila on a margarita. You won’t be gaining much by using these. A decently-priced blanco, like Espolón does the job perfectly.

The old Seagram's plant still stands in Lawrenceburg, built in 1857, and several of my ancestors worked there in the past. Seagram's whiskey isn't bourbon, but the locals were somewhat brand-loyal because of it being distilled nearby with many of the population working there. Seagram's has since left but the plant buildings remain and are owned by a company that makes small batch liquors. Again, a coincidence that Four Roses is/was distilled in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky and my family lived near Lawrenceburg, Indiana, and both towns have a history of whiskey distilling.

I have a question that I'd really like to know the answer to. Here in the UK, if you go back 30 years ago right to the present day there are brands of spirit that have always been available from any drinks store. The likes of Gordon's gin, bombay sapphire, famous grouse, bacardi. These are your household name brands on the UK and there are so many other options but I see you guys using them in many cocktail videos from many channels on KZitem. However, here in the UK those same 'household name' American whiskeys are Jack Daniels and Jim Beam but nobody ever mixes with them, puts them in comparison lists or talks about them. Why? Are they bad? Over priced? Poor to mix with? Because outside of America, these are the brands you can always find in any store that sells booze and it's the brand we think of first when we think American whisky. What's up with that?

@@TheEducatedBarfly thank you, I wondered if that was it. I totally understand that you're going to use what's available in your specific market and if you can support the little guy for around the same price where you are then absolutely do that. I think it might come across as misrepresentative here overseas however because the bottles you use regularly aren't comparable in price the way they are domestically for you usually. Of course, I'm not saying this is you guy's fault. But we see our European stalwarts used alongside fancier bottles which gives us confidence that we can produce quality cocktails with the stuff we can get hold of comparratively cheaply and from anywhere with a booze licence but the total lack of representation for your biggest brands of American whiskeys is just more apparent I think because of it.

Buffalo Trace is more than $20? Anyway, that was very interesting and I definitely need to try the cheaper Evan Williams and Four Roses offerings.

OGD used to be 19.99 but now retails around 23 bucks so it’s out since it’s over 20. You can find Evan Williams for 16 still
