I started in about 2005 collecting and trying bourbons that cost more than $25/bottle. I have a bunch. ( more than my liver can take). And I drink what I buy versus flip it. I picked up most of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, Pappy 15,20 and 23 yr old. George T Stag was my favorite but its high proof burned me out ( 144 proof ish)
Conclusion, older is smoother , if you sip it. Greateri than $100 / bottle, you need a good pallet to note the difference. Most anything over $25 is drinkable. Less than that, add coke!
I save some my higher end empties , so cheaters won’t refill them and cause I’ll never be able to buy them again.
