So are you taking it neat, on the rocks, with some water...? I actually like Booker's with just a bit of water (a few drops) or a small ice cube to cut it just a bit; neat, it's a bit oily in mouth-feel to me. That said, I just had some neat night-before-last. In terms of stuff in that proof range, I like Stagg Jr. a bit better, but it also costs about $20 more in VA than does Booker and isn't as regular a product in our stores.
