What's your overall favorite; I know there are some that prefer one for mixing and another for straight up, but what's your overall favorite?

Wild Turkey is one of the options above.
I had a very bad experience with Wild Turkey in High School. My mom was waiting up for me in my bedroom, when I crawled through the window at 2am. My punishment was to go to work in the morning (which was 3 hours away at 5am, cracking about 20 dozen eggs before McDonald's opened) Haven't had it since.

George Dickel #12 is very good; ashamed I left it off the list.

You had a job cracking 20 eggs?
It feels like it wouldn't be worth going to 3 hours just to crack 20 eggs and then go home

20 dozen eggs=240 eggs
Before you open the McDonald's at 6am Saturday morning, the counter person cracks the eggs and gets the hashbrown station ready.
The drive through person mops the floor and cleans the bathrooms.
The people working the cooking stations clean that area, make the biscuits, get the bacon, sausage, etc out of the freezer, and get the grills to temp
The other person working the front counter gets the coffee going, makes the ice-T, cleans the front counter area, and the pancake batter mix in the batter shooter.

Some of those on the list are more than 30 bucks unless you are buying a pint. WL Weller for the win.
Retirement best job ever.

Old Grandad is the only burbon I can drink period. My son is a bartender I've tried many on your list and had to wash my mouth out with gasoline to get the taste out.
Who ever said nothing in life is impossible. Never tried slamming a revolving door.
