As a bourbon noob and not so much picking up on the subtleties, it's the barrel and sweetness for me. I can mix it with all sorts of things to add a little of both, and have also been drinking some Elijah Craig lately that's freakin' smooth and doesn't need anything added.
I have a bottle of Macallan 10 and just can't get into it... it's also very smooth, which I can appreciate, but just don't care for the flavor of it straight and haven't even found a good mix for it (not that I've tried much).
