Bulleit is my go-to for cocktails at a bar. It’s a fine flavor, widely available, and not too expensive. If you’re ordering a cocktail you really don’t need anything too nice because you’re masking/blending the flavor with others. Buffalo Trace is my other go-to for the same reasons there.

Getting a nice bourbon neat, well, that’s usually so expensive at a bar I’ll only get it if the company is paying 😅
