That wasn't a knock on you or anyone that prefers said stronger spirits. I've tried my fair share. of those too. And I guess after going through countless glasses and bottles over the years, my palate (and stomach) prefers smooth over strength.
Just saying that a stronger bottle, cut to 40% typically has a nicer flavor. In other words, you adding the water is nicer and typically cheaper than paying the distiller to do it.
