Scotch with or without water? - halfflash - 10-25-2012
Title says it all. Do you drink your scotch with a little water to "open it up." Or are you neat all the way to the last drop?
I'm neat all day long.

I like mine chiled, but I have never like it watered down impairing the flavor (i.e. opening it up). I have have seen some soapstone cube sets for this purpose, you chill them and put them in the glass, one of these days I may get around to ordering them off amazon.

One oversized ice cube splash of water. Drinking one right now
RE: Scotch with or without water? - halfflash - 10-25-2012
I've seen those stones that get chilled. I usually have mine at room temp. Nick, I'd love one right now. But I have to wait a few more hours.
Why is it so looked down on to drink at work anyway??

Neat, want the full flavor. Hate to water down good scotch.

I like to drink it neat with water on the side and then add a splash of water half way through to see how it changes and opens up.
