Helping a friend decide on 6-8 bottles of cheap ($20 or under) but hopefully decent-ish (for the price point) whisk(e)ys, bourbons, scotches, etc., that are at least 375ml. Also wanting to make it easy for him so one-stop shop. Chose as the most convenient retailer Total Wine.
Here are my picks based on the above criteria in no particular order:
I included a $20+ option at the end because $6 more for double the amount may be worth the “splurge”.
Other potential choices are WT101 or WT101 Rye at $19-$20 for 750ml, Old Forester 86 at $20 for 750ml (but it’s out of stock at the store nearest my friend). Any other ideas?
The goal is to allow a wide selection for people to choose from. Friend’s gonna bring to next game and we’ll figure out the order of choice.
I’m also potentially going to try to talk him into just getting one nice more expensive bottle to share, but he likes the idea of letting people take a bottle home. (Most likely, some will still get opened and shared.)
