Just purchased a bottle of Stagg Jr. for a gift for a buddy who drinks Makers Mark almost exclusively. I realize the Makers is a wheat bourbon while the Stagg has more rye, but at 134 proof I figured he could keep the Stagg for overwhelming his bourbon drinking friends. Can anyone comment on their experience with Stagg Jr.? Should this be served with a touch of water or a little ice to cut the alcohol and open the flavors, or is the challenge of serving neat the way to go?
