I just got back from a weekend doing part of the bourbon trail and had a great time. We went to Heaven Hill, Willet, Old Forester, and Angel's Envy. For those that enjoy bourbon, you should definitely go to some of the distilleries. I had not tried Larceny before our tasting at Heaven Hill. I confirmed that I do not like wheated bourbons and found Larceny to be terrible. Willet has some good bourbons. The Pot Still is a smooth drink but their Noah's Mill is a high proof and it is smooth for 114.8. Old Forester in downtown Louisville was a great tour and had generous pours for the tasting. Angel's Envy is also a really nice tour but the tasting wasn't that great. You only get the Angel's Envy bourbon and do not get to try their rye finished in rum barrels. I tasted the rye in the bar there and it good.

My go-to bourbons are:

Four Roses Single Barrel
Angel's Envy
WT 101,and
Elijah Craig for a cheaper option
