Best bourbon under $50?

[Bighoss91]

Ran into this at the local Kroger right at $50 it one of my favorites to bad it's not more available. There were about 4 or 5 left limit 1

Under $20 from BuffaloTrace! Very rich brown sugar and caramel flavors.

The one Benchmark bottle I haven't found.
Someone on YoosToobs reviewed the complete Benchmark release and gave some fair praise to this bottle.

This is a solid pour past the Maker's Mark. I can not express( unless i have a unicorn?) This is hard to beat.

I will second ghuns opinion: tried it. It’s good. I won’t be going out of my way for a second bottle.

My kid can buy Willett family estate rye in KC any day of the week for $65. Much better than the Jefferson's. He should be bringing me a bottles tomorrow.

I've said it before, will say it again, $22 buys a bottle of Jim Beal Double Oak, (BLUE label) bourbon and it is a damn fine bargain.

I've bought that once. It's my favorite Beam product, though I generally don't like Beam products. This $23 bottle of Weller SR is treating me pretty well tonight...

Totally Agree! Also from the Jim Beam stable, ya might try the Similarly priced JB Devils Cut & JB Black. (No, I don't work for Jim Beam, lol)

My favorite bottle and at 129 proof, it'll bite back too, lol.
For my preference, the JDSBBP are just about perfect between 124-130 proof. Super bold but the alcohol doesn't wash out any of the flavor.
I was gifted a bottle of 133.8 back in 2015 and I still haven't opened it..................yet.
Enjoy that bottle Sir.

This will be my forth 1 all have been 129-131 proof but like you said so flavor forward for something that high up there. They have all been very enjoyable yet dangerous pours.

Jim Beam Devil's Cut is pretty danged good bourbon.
