I've been enjoying the Buffalo Trace on the rocks over the past week. I'm finding that it's too watered down by the time I get to the last swallow. Maybe I should keep the bourbon in the fridge so it doesn't melt the ice so quickly?
But thanks for the continued recommendations.
I've been trying different bourbons lately by taking the first sip neat, to see what smells/tastes I pick up. Then, i drop 2 small rocks in the glass. For, at lest, this seems to perfectly open up the bourbon without watering it down
