Makers Mark

Bourbon is an acquired taste. If it is too strong straight or with ice you have several choices.
1. Mix it with bit of 7 up.....I know, but it works you into the bourbon
2. Splash of water or soda
3. Move to blended....Crown Royal

I have mine, most any bourbon mixed with ice. I am drinking more Evan Williams lately. Enjoyable
