Which Stagg? I got/had ( one I opened and gave away, the other is sitting on a shelf ) a couple of 23B bottles that just aren't hitting on much.

That Stagg Jr. was Batch 7 (Fall 2016 - 130.0 proof).

1) E. H. Taylor Small Batch  (only because I can never get the Single Barrel) 

The small batch has always been just 'okay' to me. I've got a couple bottles on the bar but I never really think about opening them cause there's always something else I would like more. 

The single barrel is awesome however! I would absolutely love to have a bottle of this at all times. 

Other favorites that are readily available for me are 

1. Bardstown Wheated

2. ECBP

3. WT 101

Angel's Envy for us. Just because we were gifted a few bottles and don't drink Bourbon so much.

Favorite bottle that sits on the shelf for under $70 - Tie between ER10 and High West Double Rye (I know, it’s a rye, but I love it 🤣).

Favorite bottle that is harder to find for under $70 - Jack Daniel’s 10 year.

When I was drinking bourbon, I always wanted to find Buffalo Trace but never could. It would be gone as it was being unpacked at the store. I forget how much it cost but it wasn’t that bad.

I've been told the exact same things by my colleagues in Virginia, and it's crazy because here in Western-Europe it's easily found both online and at decent liquor stores. 
That would also be my go-to bourbon. There's better ones for sure, but for the price you can't beat the value of Buffalo Trace imo. I also like Eagle Rare but that's less common in liquor stores here (still easily obtained online though).
Right now I'm sipping on Baby Jane, which I would say is decent but took some effort to find for a decent price .
