"Sweetheart of the Rodeo Bourbon from Kooper Family is my favorite whiskey to gift: smooth with a perfect balance of vanilla and oak, and eye-catching branding. It’s made by a small, husband-and-wife distillery team (Troy and Michelle Kooper) based in Ledbetter, Texas, and they humbly produce some of the best sipping and cocktail-friendly rye and bourbon — I’ll be giving a bottle to my brothers-in-law this year." - Nadia Chaudhury
