I've got a mate whos a big fan of Bourbon. He's tried all the standard brands like Buffalo Trace, JD, Jim Beam and Wild Turkey.

I want to get him a bottle for Xmas of something he might not have tried before, something I can say was recommended by Americans as a good bourbon. Doesn't need to be some weird flavour like Red Stag, just old fashioned American bourbon that maybe flies under the radar in other countries.

It’s not “fancy,” but Old Granddad’s Bottled In Bond is delicious. It’s just a very good, rye heavy bourbon.

That's my standard, but it can be a bit hard to find

I’ve noticed that; I don’t know why, but recently the stores by me only have it every third time I go.

People are more aware of it as a low cost high quality bourbon. I'm sure they're increasing production but it'll take years to hit the market
