“1792 Small Batch (~$29, a "World's Best Bourbon" award winner)”
“World's Best Bourbon winner”

“Clocking in at 125 proof, this is a big, bold pour. It brings a lot of heat but backs it up with rich brown sugar, banana, and deep charred oak notes.”
“While the Barton 1792 Distillery does not publish its exact mashbill, its Small Batch is widely recognized as a "high-rye" style bourbon. It is highly recommended in the whiskey community as a”
“A gentler alternative: vanilla, caramel, dried fruit, and oak, with a soft wheated texture. It lacks the heavy toast/char punch of Woodford Double Oaked but scratches the same smooth, sweet after-dinner-bourbon itch.”
“If you happen upon **1792 Full Proof** at a reasonable price, it more closely matches Select's intensity, though it may not actually be cheaper.”
“It is 125 proof and a strong choice for someone wanting an intense, full-bodied pour. In Virginia's July–September 2026 price list, it is $49.99—so it may or may not be cheaper in your area, and availability varies.”
“Avoid paying a markup for **Weller Special Reserve** or **1792 Sweet Wheat** as "cheap alternatives"—they can be good, but they're often hard to find at a price that actually beats Maker's 46.”
