Had this last night, thinking my palate has matured considerably in the 30+ years since i last had it. It still tastes like "old man's whiskey. Rough, makes my spine crawl and gives me shivers and a faint naseau, just like it used to. Tried it both straight and with water. Water just removed the heat, but allowed the taste to really come forward. Not a good thing for me.

@Picodegallo If you consider Bookers and other barrel proofs "smooth", then yes. But I don't like bland (Blantons, Eagle Rare, Basil Hayden, etc.).
@Picodegallo what’s wrong with that? Most people don’t enjoy burning their face off.
@Picodegallo Bookers Country Ham is my current favorite, as well as Elijah Craig Barrel Proof. I also like cask strength ryes. Let me guess, you like whiskeys with a high alcohol to dollar ratio.
Let me guess. You love “smooth” whiskey 😂
