Need bourbon recs - have I come to the right place??

70.246.101.208

My son graduates from law school Sunday, and we are going for the graduation. He's a bourbon fan. What's the BEST bourbon to get for this auspicious occasion? Price is (almost) no object - how many times does one's son graduate from law school?

If it matters, I know he likes Woodford Reserve, Knobs Creek, and Jefferson's Reserve. But I'm willing to splurge on something special for this. I don't feel COMPELLED to spend a lot, but am willing to go for it if needed - I'd say top price is $200. But am certainly willing to spend less (more money for records). Just want something "memorable".

What say ye?
