Was chatting with Brett and it got me realizing that I'm rarely reaching for a rocks glass and big ice cube these days and have been enjoying everything neat. Even my barrel proofs I'm starting neat and maybe only adding a couple drops of water. I'm curious how everyone else prefers their drink?

Neat almost exclusively, at least the first time or two. If I try something multiple times I might branch out, but rarely.

Same, I used to do EVERYTHING over rocks but I honestly can't remember the last time I had any spirit in a form other than neat or with a couple drops of distiller water. Old Fashioned's, Bloody Mary's and White Russians are about the only mixed drinks I do with any regularity either.
I used to do always over ice. After getting a nice glass to nose, I've done mostly neat. sometimes will make an old fashioned. Had a Manhattan with four roses small batch while out last night and it was awesome. May start making more of those!
Poured some of the four roses last night and tonight and I well be going to go grab the last two bottles they have tomorrow. The long finish is incredible on this spirit.

Glad to hear Brad I am also a true believer when it comes to 4R now for sure, I blame Justin as he talked me into trying them lol.
I have recently purchased and am out of or almost out of the following...Elijah Craig 12, Glenmorangie 12 & Yamazaki 12
1- any recommendation for similar priced/styles. Very new to scotch, bourbon and whiskey but have really enjoyed them
2-any recommendation for a scotch that's a step up but won't kill the bank account? Maybe like $60-80
Thanks guys!
