    Ratings based on hundreds of reviews, aggregated.

    https://www.whiskybase.com/whiskies/whisky/34099

    Blanton’s: 85.59
    Buffalo Trace: 78.52

    Probably more useful, statistically, than the one review you quoted but did not link to, yes?

    Concierge sites…go back and reread the original post you replied to.

    Not really. I understand how my taste compares to many of the reviewers on BB. That's more important to me. Besides, your Blanton's link has 4 votes vs the Buffalo Trace at 362. So as far as useful, no more than 1.

    I'm done. I've given my opinion and I stand by it. It's pretty clear yours is different. I'm fine with that.

    You stated the two bottles have the same reviews. They do not. That’s not an opinion.

    Unless rating above refers to proof, which would be dumb in two ways. First no one refers to proof as a rating. Second, saying two bourbons both produced at the same distillery with similar proof should have the same price is dumb. Doesn’t account for mash bill, age, warehouse location, finishing, single barrel versus batched and so on.

    Get over it. I heard your opinion. And I understand it. It doesn’t change my opinion nor do I expect you to agree with mine.

    So I'm new to bourbon, Scotch was my choice but in the 2 years I've been drinking bourbon and living in Va I've never even seen a bottle of E.H. Taylor

    I seem to only find EHT at the "hole in the wall" liquor stores around here, most of the other Buffalo products I can find at the grocery store or bevmo/total wine. Also I don't think I've ever seen an actual bottle on the shelf, they always have it in the little tube:
