Not a bourbon drinker, but the father-in-law is. Go figure, he'd from Quebec. I would like to buy him a good Bourbon for Fathers Day, for under $100 that he can't get in PQ, but don't know much about bourbons. He's coming for a visit, can't avoid it. Any suggestions?

The last requirement is going to be difficult, as I can't imagine that PQ would get anything less than pretty much what we get in Ontario. Booker's is an experience. $70 or so.

Knob Creek single barrel if you can find it is great! if not regular knob creek is good, as well as Woodford estates
I agree. Woodfords it's my everyday sipper.

Blanton's original is what I drink on special occasion.

Thanks for all the input. After careful consideration and testing, I had to try it, I'm sure it will be a hit. Basil Hayden also available in Quebec should the father in law decide to get a second one, but go figure $2.00 cheaper.
Excellent choice, it's my favourite.Thanks for all the input. After careful consideration and testing, I had to try it, I'm sure it will be a hit. Basil Hayden also available in Quebec should the father in law decide to get a second one, but go figure $2.00 cheaper.
Mind you the 90 proof, near overproof Bulleit Bourbon was a close second, but I'm wanted to have a hold card for later.
