I was $2 short for a bottle of Beam so I got Evan Williams instead. It's been around since 1783 (not this particular bottle I hope) so you'd reckon they must've got it right. Aged 7 years. Stronger than Beam too.
Anyone tried it? A Kentucky bourbon of course.

I didn't forget at all. Of course Kentucky is #1 for bourbon, I wouldn't drink any other sort. But have you tried Evan Williams? I hadn't heard of it before.

Evan Williams is just fine, Sheila.
Actually, although my palate is especially calibrated (as FC's is also) for bourbon, I would rate E.W. as above average, even given that there is no such thing as an undrinkable bourbon.
If you can find it, Maker's Mark is pretty good, but if you have a few more bucks in your pocket on occasion, treat yourself to a nice bottle of Wild Turkey; the best you can do, off-the-shelf.

I'm sampling the Evan Williams now. It's not bad, although I drink it with caffiene free diet coke so really it all tastes like crap.

That's a toxic combo, somewhat like ketchup and cauliflower. :x

Oh but I can't dump the coke, I'd get drunk and dreadful things happen then. It's not worth the risk. Truly.

Diet Coke has been proven to cause pimples under laboratory conditions.
It's a vicious circle.

Seriously? I don't think I've tried Early Times but it's one of the cheaper one's here. I'll have to give it a go.
