Best bourbon?


I noticed there are threads for scotch and vodka so we need one for bourbon too.
What do you think is the best bourbon? I can't pick just one but I think that buffalo trace and Elijah Craig are both very good, especially at ~$30 for a fifth.

Gonna try to re-start this thread.
Right now its Basil Hayden
Woodfords Reserve is waiting patiently on the shelf.
Has any one found something new and changed there opinion ??
In my old age i just stepped up to Bourbon.
I started with Haydens simply because it was only 80 proof and had good reviews.I will work up to Blantons
Enjoy the game
I tried Basil Haydens and Woodfords Reserve,they just didn't do it for me.Maybe I'm not a bourbon guy.
Tempted to try Phaelon's recommended Whistlepig but for now its back to tequila.Riazul Anejo and Casa Noble are on my top shelf
Tried some Knob Creek last month and that was the best bourbon I tasted until tonight.
My choice now is Blanton's.Goes great with a Porterhouse steak and/or with Miles Davis.
I tried Blanton's but it didn't do much for me.
For smooooooooooth I like Bullit.
I guess Bourbon is like stereo components,so many choices.
At least differing opinions dont become blown up arguments
