Pour a bit and gradually adjust the proof down with small additions of still spring water until it suits your palate. Do not use ice.
I'm different here - I do use ice, not poured over ice but a cube or 2 depending on size. To me, just the right amount of water added and not enough ice to make it cold, just cool.
I bought some of the whiskey rocks a while back - guess I should give them a try and just add spring water to taste. At least I'd look more sophisticated that way... haha!
