For higher end or good spirits I usually try to avoid ice as it tends to water the drink more than I prefer, if I do it is only a single cube. I will add a small splash of cold water though as that helps to open up the flavors of the spirit more.

Since my very first pour; I've been a straight up and neat Bourbon drinker. I'm glad I took to it so well. I want to share an article I read that really made me appreciate bourbon and the way it's enjoyed.

What did you think of the Woodfords? And have you tried any others since?

Woodford was amazing. Read my updated posts to see just how much I now love Bourbon

Evan Williams Single Barrel is a steal at around 25 a bottle, as is Old Gran Dad bottled in bond.

Woodford Double Oaked is around 50 and is always a favorite for everyone I've shared it with.

There are tons of good-great bourbons out there without getting into the limited edition and rare releases.

As for a glass, Glencairn is the way to go without a doubt.

I have a hard time drinking Bourbon without my Glencairn. I always ask for a snifter glass when sampling when it's not available.

Throwing my two cents in - Buffalo Trace is great. Weller's 12 year is good, too. Although they can be s little more, definitely check out Basil Hayden's and (if you can find it, since theyre almost entirely limited to Texas) Rebecca Creek or Balcones Blue.

I intend to try Buffalo Trace but already bought a bottle of Basil Hayden's and loved it. Damn pics I posted earlier won't load.

Thanks. I was gonna buy one and read a review that it had a hint of nail polish remover haha. I am up for trying a snifter next time I come across it. I did the same with Bookers and ended up loving it.
