Wild turkey seems to be a consensus pick. The 8 year version.
Additionally good beginner bourbon's are Jim Beam's 4-year version, it's in the white bottle. Four Roses and Evan Williams are also reasonably priced.

I'm a Southerner by birth and proud of it, even though I moved to Seattle 20 years ago and probably will never go back. One of the things I never missed was bourbon, which is the universal Southern whiskey of choice. Bourbon always struck me as waaaay too sweet and narrow in its flavor range. But, as my wife is a Bourbon fan, I went to our neighborhood liquor store to pick up an inexpensive bottle for her, to help ease her discomfort from the flu. I noticed a bottle that all my buddies back in North Carolina used as their special occasion booze; a Bourbon I had never even tasted. It was $18, so I bought it.
It is George Dickel No. 12 and, after a lifetime of hating Bourbon, I now have one that I, a confirmed single-malt Islay Scotch guy, can drink and enjoy. It has a lovely, woodsy, caramel/vanilla aroma and flavor, is very smooth and well-balanced, and has a delightful, subtle finish.
Since I'm not a big Bourbon fan, I may not be the best person to answer this but, as a beer and wine reviewer for the Seattle P-I, my business is evaluating beverages and this passes all my tests for flavor, balance, body, and finish. Just plain good stuff.

Nobody knows who first invented Bourbon Whiskey, or when.
bourbon
no its a Kentucky whiskey
Absolutely. Bourbon is just regular whiskey, usually distilled in Kentucky. There are a few rules for the way it is made in order for it to be called "bourbon," however, it is still just primarily a corn whiskey.
Bourbon is at least 51% corn based, with aging in the oak barrels of at least 24 months.
Bulleit Bourbon is a Bourbon whiskey product. This whiskey company is very famous and well known among a lot of people world wide. In addition, many people know this company's whiskey.
It depends. Bourbon is a subset of whiskey. Other whiskeys include Tennessee, Scotch, Canadian, and Rye. Using Scotch or Canadian whiskey in place of bourbon would not be advisable because of taste differences. If bourbon is not available, try a Kentucky or Tennessee whiskey like Early Times or Jack Daniels. Happy mixing!
Wild Turkey is a brand of Kentucky bourbon whiskey.
Yes. No, not necessarily. Jim Beam Distilleries also makes and markets Jim Beam Rye, which is rye whiskey, not bourbon whiskey. Jim Beam Rye has a tan label, and the much more common Jim Beam bourbon has a white label, and contains the words "Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey." There are other varieties of Jim Beam bourbon that are aged longer, and they have green or black labels, and both contain the word "bourbon.
No. It's an Irish whiskey.
Bourbon is whiskey made in Kentucky, specifically Bourbon County: Maker's Mark Scotch is blended whiskey made in Scotland: Johnny Walker Irish whiskey is made in Ireland. It can be Single Malt (Glendfiddich), double malt or more. American whiskey is that which is not made in Bourbon County: Jack Daniels. Canadian whiskey is that which is made in Canada: Seagrams, Candian Club.
