Bourbon is the Anti-Depressant of the last century

I love Bourbon, it is by far the most enjoyable alcoholic beverage for me. Many differnent brands, a rainbow of flavours if you will. Woodford Reserve is my favorite, but it's expensive. As are Knob Creek and Booker Noe. The most reasonable option is Wild Turkey. It's not the most premium of brands, but it has flavour and isn't damn expensive.

It's an acquired taste Bourbon is. A strange phrase to begin with. I mean, if you have to force yourself to like something, why even bother? I had to make the choice to begin drinking something other than beer. I was "retiring" from the bar industry and setting myself up behind a desk. There is very little running around on your feet sitting here, so beer would have been disasterous to my midsection. So when I asked my buddy what I should switch to, he joking suggested Wild Turkey. The suggestion was taken seriously and ever since, I have been a big fan of the stuff.

One word of caution, Wild Turkey also comes in a 100 Proof variety, it may not seem like an extra 10% of alcohol will hurt you, but on two occasions, I have drank a large quantity of the stuff believing it to be the normal variety and both instances ended badly. Let's just say halloween ended about 5 hours before bedtime, and I am no longer allowed near the BBQ at my friends house.
