Decided there is no time like the present to start on that list. Picked up a bottle of Four Roses and Widow Jane. I'll do a taste test this evening.

I bought a bottle of Widow Jane last Fall.  I didn't think it was very good.  Plus it's made in NY.  WTF do NYers know about making bourbon?  :)
I liked it but still like Basil Hayden better for my tastebuds.

Basil Hayden 10 times over Widow Jane.  I bought WJ over Blantons because of the guy's recommendation. 

I'm not a huge connoisseur but I thought the Widow Jane was pretty good.  Guess I will have to try the Basil Hayden.
I brought a bottle of Black Ridge to Golden this weekend. I bought it on the recommendation from one of the guys at Total Wine. Reasonable price and very tasty. Close to Basil in flavor. Not sure if you tried it Mark.

Blantons is high quality. Super smooth. Sweeter than most but very good.

I may still like Basil better. May taste test  them.

I have a new bottle of that that hasn't been cracked open yet.  I've recently had the taste for tequila.
