11 Best Cheap Bourbons Under $30

7. Elijah Craig 12-Year-Old Bourbon

Price: $25

Aged for 12 years, Elijah Craig 12-year-old bourbon is the oldest in this list. It is owned and manufactured by the family-operated Heaven Hill Distilleries, Inc., which is one of the largest alcohol suppliers in the U.S. Being bottled at 134 proof also suggests that it’s stronger than its counterparts, but a longer aging period means that the flavor is as good as it can get. However, it should be noted that it is a small-batch bourbon, so it may be pretty rare to find. If you do though, it’ll be a great addition to your bar, or even a decent present for an acquaintance that you don’t like significantly enough to fork out for a more expensive bottle of booze.
