Add a cube, see how it changes. One of my favorites to get someone new to bourbon to decide how they like to drink it. Anything Cask, or Barrel strength can be done this way. I never recommend over rocks though, the ice will dilute too much. Try this...
First drink upon opening the bottle, pour straight and try it...if you like it, there you go.
If it's too strong, try a quick drizzle of good water. Try again. Still don't like it, add a cube, you should be good from there. You kinda get to be your own blend master.

That would be it wood box with plastic slide top. Don't worry I'm not going near the flavored stuff Now that we have Buffalo Trace I'll keep an eye out for the Antique Collection.
