I always get a bottle and bring it back with me.

I guess I don't have a sophisticated palate. But I found Blanton's overrated. I find Buffalo Trace up in Massachusetts. The one small store that still has it charges $55. I like it but I've not done side by side taste tests. I'm also the type of person that sticks his nose in the glass and says, "Yup, I'm getting hints of bourbon, bourbon, and bourbon". I can't tell vanilla from peach from oak. LOL
