    I drink it straight (no ice in glass) with an ice-water chaser.

    A good whiskey does not need a mix or chaser Just my opinion

    Right on, I would not be without a Makers mark bottle stashed away

    I think a "Fair Rule" would be that once I break the $100 a bottle mark, it is straight ONLY (Possibly with a teaspoon of water or stirred with an ice cube which is then removed) OTHERWISE if it's less than $100 a bottle then it's time to marry coke to whiskey/bourbon A match truly made in heaven.

    monkey_small.jpg A blend of 3 fine Speyside Single Malts, I believe from a review I saw, that it is a blend of Glenfidich, The Balvenie and Kininvie.

    It was nice on it's own .......................... and then it was nice with coke :)

    You also should have the right tools for the job ;-)

    Next will be the Glencairn Water pitcher and timber "Flight Tray" in which I can put some cold, but not icy, pure water. Test the whisky/whiskey/bourbon, then if it passes the palate test and "nosing", THEN we move to the proper size glasses to enjoy rather than taste :) Ice cubes may then be involved as may mixers, dependent on the cost and quality of the whiskey being enjoyed.

    I acquired this hard to find bourbon today. Not opening it until my son visits at Christmastime. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1416687744.759160.jpg

    I bought one of those here in Idaho last year. Also bought the Rye. The Bourbon is great

    Sazerac Rye. My latest acquisition. Very smooth for a Rye. Great flavour. Very nice old fashioned looking bottle.

    Does doing shots of Fireball or Jim Beam Devils Cut count?
