Default Which Bourbon to bring

So I went back to GA last week to see friends and family and while in Macon I stopped by a familiar liquor store to pick up some good bourbon not offered by ABC here in NC. Well after fighting temptation to drink both, $25 for a checked bag, and surviving a plane ride back to Raleigh, we have two contenders. I came across 2 very nice looking bourbons, although I have not heard of either of these. One is actually a wheat bourbon, which I heard is very smooth. I have also found good reviews on the Black Maple Hill too, being a very fine bourbon.

So I'm going to end up drinking one of these this week, but I do want your input on which one I should bring with me to DBR.

Let the voting commence!

Looks like South Hill is the closest major liquor store; or Chase City. Anyone know of one on the state line that might closer to Raleigh?
