Since my company hasn't had that bad of an April, I kinda convinced my VP to expense a bottle of liquor for this Fridays Zoom Happy Hour(my idea as well).
Front Runners are Basil Hayden's or Kilchoman Machir Bay.
Only rule is that is has to be at least $50. So no Jack Daniels, or Absolute Vodka, you simple people. Bourbon or Scotch preferably.
Also no gin.
$89.99
Not looking for a picture. But will recommend stoli elite.
just get 2 of these:
Honestly like it better than most bourbons twice the price
With taxes a half gallon is over $50. Pendleton Canadian Whiskey.

OSA: sorry not doing Canadian Whiskey
Well I do, so fuck you.
Laphroaig Quarter Cask is a good malt for under $100.
Or just buy whatever Hibiki is less than three bills.

Maker's Mark on the rocks = TRAINWRECK 45% ALCOHOL FTW
Don't get Basil Hayden. That shit is rot gut, swill, man.
If you can come across one of the obvious 'hard to find' options (Weller 12, Weller Full Proof, Weller Antique 107, Blanton's, Elmer T Lee, Rock Hill Farms, etc.) then it's a no brainer. You go with one of those. Not because they're so fantastic, but mainly because you get brownie points for finding an allocated bourbon. Except Blanton's, that shit really is good. But it's also the same mash bill as Ancient Age, which you can grab a handle of, off any bottom shelf in the country, for < $20, but I digress.
I don't know where you live, but you might be able to come across a bottle of something like EHT Colonel Taylor Single Barrel. Anything in the EHT line is fucking fantastic imo. Even the Small Batch. It's retail is $39, but most places won't sell it at retail so you'll hit your $50 number pretty easy if you look around.
If you want something that's for sure going to be readily available on most shelves, I really like the Woodford Double Oaked.
Ultimately it all depends on your taste, but that's my 2 fuckin' cents.
If you’re gonna do alcohol, why fuck around with the overpriced watered down crap? Go for the real thing. Or as real as one can get that is commercially produced.
It’s 192 proof, made in Poland (where vodka was invented), and should cost less than $20 online before shipping and handling if not available in a nearby liquor store.
P.S. If you end up liking it, say goodbye to your liver. 👍🏻

You take time out of your day to help him and he red reps you.
Just proves yet again what a piece of shit OSA is
Patron Silver FTW
At an exclusive alcohol event that I attend yearly, I tasted their 25 yr and 30 yr Laphroaig and I wasnt impressed. Was so harsh and overpowering it was like rubbing alcohol.
Hibiki is such an alternative. Smooth, palatable and delicious even women can enjoy it.
Then avoid Laphroaig, it hits for some and others hate it.

C$ introduced me to Balvenie as I was just starting out; many of their offerings are under $ and agreeable to many.
