Everyone has to taste the lesser expensive stuff to for a time period unless you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. I guess I've had most all of them over my 36 years of making the legal age to drink time frame. I guess you know SoCo is a liqueur not a Bourbon, only real difference is that in liqueur they add sugar and / or flavorings to make the drink sweet (which appeals to most of the ladies). BTW where did you get SoCo at a Wal-Mart? They don't normally have distilled spirits as the license to sell is only for beer, wine and pre-mixed wine based flavored drinks like the Daileys Pouches.
Anyway, drinking the good stuff is an accrued taste. Never knock what another likes until you have a few chrome hair on your head. Then you can distinguish that Gentleman Jack over old No 7 or green label is much better but single barrel is top dog in the Jack Line up. And great whiskey is not to be mixed with sugar drinks, it is made for a Man to sip and enjoy. Scotch must be old and drank neat, by old I find that mostly 15+ years and up and often a good single malt. Irish whiskey is my game, to me it suits the taste buds better than almost anything (well almost, I can think of one thing better but we won't bring that into the discussion). Jameson is good, so is Bushmills but Redbrest is fine as is Midleton Very Rare and Knappogue Castle just to name a very few from grand old Ireland.
I stockpile when I have the extra jingle, price is better when you buy the case in lieu of one bottle. Having a rather large home bar, should you have an interest I may have extra available - I'm an old chrome haired horse trader that has a fondness for firearms and the related items that go with them..........

Up in Ohio ( I'm up there a lot throughout the year) every store sells everything. Walmart, Target, Kroger, Giant Eagle(like their Ingles), most gas stations etc. all sell Whiskey,vodka, mixed drinks etc. never seen it down here for some reason though....

There are three things that must be stocked in my fridge at all times.

1. Coke (I'm from GA, what'd you expect?)
2. Vodka
3. Scotch

I like rye whiskey with Bulleit being a favorite but Jim Beam rye is good too. Jameson's and Tullamore Dew single malt are two more whiskeys I like.

Just bought a bottle of Lagavulin 16yr old. But that's whisky, not whiskey. Also worth trying is Corsair Triple Smoke...Kentucky distilled with peat.

Both whisky (Scottish and British English) and whiskey (American and Hiberno/Irish English) are correct!!!!

It's hard, but look at the bottle label. If the spelling's good enough for Jack, it's good enough for me.
