Smoothness
This I've found to be great for cocktails. I don't really drink bourbon neat so could tell you how that experience is. But if your looking for great whiskey sours and old fashions, then give this one a try, you'll be glad that you did

Best Bargain Bourbon
Buffalo Trace is on allocation in most places for a reason. It is the best tasting bourbon you can buy for under $50 period. It has all the best of what you look for in bourbon - vanilla, caramel, oak, pepper spice. Try it, and don’t get just one… you’ll be back for more.

Amazing for the price
I am reluctant to publish how good this is. It will become as impossible to find as other products from Buffalo Trace.

My personal favorite
Tried them all. From cheap to my max about $300 a bottle. At this point in life BT has become my go to. I may still try something out for kicks. But my go to from now on will always be buffalo trace if available out and i order 6-12 bottles at a time. I had been drinking old fashioneds made with woodford when a great bartender truly making me real old fashioneds asked me why I preferred woodford. At that time in my life it was just what i had sort of gravitated to. This was at my son’s bachelor party. We were in the drinks and cigars phase of the party. Anyway she asked me if i had ever tried BT, I hadn’t. It was their house bourbon. Tried one and never looked back. Can not describe how smooth and flavorful this bourbon is. I need to go back and thank that bartender - maybe i will send her a Christmas card this year.
