Trying to give suggestions you haven't heard yet.
Russian River Rye, Zinfandel finish
Jim Beam Signature
Widow Jane
Anything Whistle Pig
Bernhiem
Michter's
And if you really want to impress/please him, Black Maple Hill. Not sure of current offerings, but some years have been the very best I ever tasted. I'm still hoarding a bottle from about 15 years ago, that I only bring out for very special people.
There are also some very rare iterations of Blanton's.
I have heard great reviews of Rabbit Hole and Bhakta, but never tried.
Pappy if he's a label chaser, but honestly, there are lots of bourbons better than Pappy for a ton less money.
Christmas helper tip - If you pick out something cool/rare from Total Wine in Alpharetta, I can pick it up for you and ship it. No Alabama Booze Cartel limitations, calling something rare and expensive that really isn't rare, and should'nt be expensive.

Looking for suggestions for a gift for my son. If you run accross any check out that new Blackberry Crown Royal... I hear it’s' good but very limited.... I’ve looked for over 6 months in 3 different states and have no success finding a single bottle. Total in Alpharetta had about 4 cases on the shelf last week, and no telling how many in backstock. I bought 2 bottles for $26.99 each, one for me and one for a friend. Still in stock based on their website. Limit is 2 bottles per person. I'll be down there Thursday, and could arrange to buy at least 6 bottles if someone has a serious craving. We can figure out meet near Gadsden close to Christmas, or shipping at actual cost. Also OK with more, as I am down there at least once a week for sales calls.

If I run across some, I’ll keep you in mind for a bottle or two.

It had a blackberry flavor but it was one step below syrup in sweetness. Was told it was good in lemonade but was even sweeter when mixed. Might do good if you made your own lemonade and adjusted sweetness by taste.

Just spend to what you're budget allows. I think its wild to pay more for what the cheap stuff will also do, but some folks like to part with their money for the same buzz. I recognize there are better quality whisky or bourbons. So going nice is worth it for a gift. I can advise better if I know the limit you want to spend against.
Been here long enough to go from "bring 'da pain" to " bring 'da pain meds.

Wild Turkey Father and Son A friend of mine just found a 40 year old bottle gift set of wild turkey from 1985, unopened in his dads collection.
Is it Hunting Season Yet?
