Not to be too nit-picky, but Jack Daniels is not Bourbon.
Read the bottle. It is a Tennesee Whiskey.
Bourbon is made in Kentucky.
Woodford Reserve is a very good bourbon.
I also like Jim Beam Black, another bourbon.
Okay, Makers Mark, too.

Most bourbon is made in KY, but not all...geography isn't part of the definition.

Just to be picky, Jack is sourmash Tennesse sipping whiskey.

Famous Grouse is a much better blended Scotch whisky than Chivas.

Old Charter Ten and Glenlivit 18 are my favorites.

You’re right, of course.

I lump it in with bourbon because to me, I quantify these things by the feedstock - ie, corn is bourbon, malted barley is whiskey, rye is rye, etc.

Woodford is a bourbon I rather like. It seems to be a quality product.
