I really seem to like it like this! I don't drink all my whiskey/bourbon like this when I have it neat, but sometimes it's a great change of pace, even if it's frowned upon by bourbon fanatics.

No, I am not a "fruit the drink" fan.
I prefer most of my drams neat. I keep a fairly well stocked cabinet for when I want variety.
My personal favorites are the Laphroaig Scotches, with a big preference towards the 10 yr Cask Strength and the Triple Wood. Seriously, two of the finest Whiskeys ever bottled.
