Ice and ginger ale?

Neat. Maybe a wee splash of room temperature water (a few drops). I never do ice or mixer.

Ultimately, it's how YOU enjoy it, Matt.


I think I like bourbon cocktails more than straight bourbon.

Don’t get up. I’ll see myself out. :confused
 
1. Neat
2. If you must, ice
3. Your third option would just be embarrassing. I can’t even acknowledge it.

I use one ice cube in sweet whiskeys, or my 135 proof bottle. Otherwise neat.

Ultimately, as Paulo said. Drink it gourmet you want to.

I am a HUGE fan of Kentucky Mules...but I couldn't do it with a bottle over $60 or so. I did have a few this summer with Elijah Craig barrel proof. They were so delicious!
 
I’ll finish this with a little ginger ale and save the bottle for sidecars and wot nots.

Elijah Craig barrel proof.

Which barrel? I've come to love the 135 proof. I can't find it around here at a reasonable price. I probably only have one drink left in the bottle. I drink it with one ice cube.

The EC 124 is pretty damn good. I drink that neat. If I'm drinking a Kentucky Mule I usually use Buffalo Trace.

135 is at BevMo here, but our taxes are RIDICULOUS!

You really think how you drink your bourbon will make me think even lesser of you that I already do?!?!?

:-) :-p

You know we luv ya, Matthew.

I like a good cocktail as well, I just don’t have any time for them. Too many good whisky/whiskeys around for me to try instead.

At a bar with no great selection, a Whiskey Smash fits the bill fine!!
 
Can't say I have visited this thread before or what it is about. But if anybody is looking for a decent value whiskey, I have to recommend Tin Cup as my go-to right now. Doesn't have the complexity of some of your guy's top shelf stuff, but great to have at a party/poker night. I'll buy it over Jack any day of the week.

The 107 is quite good straight IMO, or with a TSP of still water.

But ultimately Paulo is right, however you best enjoy it. If that's over a large rock, completely acceptable.

I'd personally choose a cheaper handle for anything mixed (ginger ale, mule, coke, sour, etc.)
