Honestly man, my bourbon shelf gets more attention than my tool chest some nights. Eleven bottles I keep stocked, rotate through during Sox season, and argue about the same way I argue tavern-style versus deep dish - loud, opinionated, no apologies. This ain't some fancy whiskey-bar list, this is what a guy who fixes transmissions all day actually pours himself after the shop closes.

El estante para bourbon que todo garaje de Bridgeport necesita — 8 items
Name	Comment	Proof	Price Range
1Buffalo Trace	This is the daily driver, man. Like a good small-block V8 - never lets you down, never breaks the bank. Pour it neat after a long day at the shop.	90 proof	$25-30
2Eagle Rare 10 Year	Honestly one of the best deals in bourbon, period. Ten years in the barrel and it still comes in under thirty bucks. That's a lineup card win right there.	90 proof	$30-35
3Four Roses Small Batch	Smoother than a fresh coat of wax on an old Buick. Fruity, easy sipper - good one to hand a buddy who says he 'doesn't do bourbon.'	90 proof	$32-38
4Old Forester 1920 Prohibition Style	Big, bold, no water added - kinda like arguing deep dish is a casserole and standing your ground. Not for the faint of heart, honestly.	115 proof	$38-45
5Elijah Craig Small Batch	Solid mid-tier bottle, man. Good char, good spice. This is what I'm sipping when the Sox are actually winning in the ninth.	94 proof	$28-32
6Woodford Reserve	A little fancier than what I usually reach for, but the bottle's classy enough to keep out front, not hidden behind the toolboxes.	90.4 proof	$35-40
7Knob Creek 9 Year	Heavy, oaky, sits right in your chest like a big American engine. This is the bottle I bring when I want to win the argument.	100 proof	$35-40
8Old Grand-Dad Bonded	Cheap, honest, gets the job done - basically the bourbon version of a Craigslist parts run. Respect the bottled-in-bond label, man.	100 proof	$20-24
