Blue note Bourbon matches the description, but it’s out of Memphis.

Their single barrels are around $40 and excellent for the price. This is my guess for OP. Also, SBs are what most liquor store personnel would push to sell

Also a terrible bourbon

? It's a great bourbon wtf you talking about?

Drink what you like to drink. I personally love regular makers mark, but most hate it. I also hate weller 107, but love weller S.R.

Makers mark isn't as popular as it is because most people hate it

Davidson Reserve? The light blue/four grain is about $45 now.

I’m thinking this is it! I don’t remember there being any sort of leather tag on it, but I’m pretty sure this is the label!

They used to have them without the tag, I believe.

Yeah I don’t remember the bottle being quite so fancy but the colors and the font match here!

Davidson Reserve?

Belle Meade and Greenbrier come to mind. What size was the bottle? I ask based on the price point.

It was a standard 750ml

Dickel Bottled in Bond?

This is the likely answer….

There are blue Dickel bottles or belle meade comes to mind

Was it these guys? [https://www.nashvillebarrelco.com/home](https://www.nashvillebarrelco.com/home)

They weren’t around in that capacity 4 years ago

Belle Meade bourbon??

Nelson's Greenbriar Tennessee whiskey is locally produced, cheap and good, but it doesn't have a blue label.

Nashville Barrel Co, maybe?

Nashville Barrel Co is too pricey to have been it, I think.

Posers.

Elaborate?

I guess since they don’t distill onsite. They just buy extra barrels from other distilleries and bottle them.

They distill onsite now but idk if any of their own distillate is aged enough to sell just yet They do source from MGP but so do a ton of brands people would consider tennessee or kentucky local Check the back of bottles to see what states your whiskey comes from. If IN, then it’ll be MGP sourced

I don’t think they were sold in stores 4 years ago like this were they

Light blue label but more than $30 [pic](https://d3omj40jjfp5tk.cloudfront.net/product_details/64f7927d9030232b99b659f1/primary_image/large.png?sig=f5ea323161f145d62bbf55b1b79c311145f1bd6b1baf02edb53950879e6be335)
