I concur, I tried to acquire the taste for 151 in college and even after 4 years of earnest and consistent effort it did not get better. Similar experiments with Everclear and overproof grappa were also unsuccessful.

I would not recommend any of these if one is interested in a pleasant drinking experience.

Lately I've been finding Bourbon to be enjoyable. Woodford Reserve and Bulleit are well-priced and good introductions in my opinion.

Also try Buffalo Trace, it's one of my three favorite including the two you mentioned.

Thanks! It's on my list, I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Would you suggest the regular Buffalo Trace or one of their (many) variations?

I have only tried the regular one but I liked it a lot.
