This will probably raise a howl from the purists, but have you tried any of
them chilled? Not with ice in the glass, but actually chilling the whole
bottle. I went with my husband down the "Bourbon Trail" in Kentucky and one of the
distilleries (Buffalo Trace, IIRC) does a side by side tasting of their top
bourbon at room temp and straight from the fridge. The cold completely changes
the taste profile of the alcohol. The trick works with Scotch, too.
