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.

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.

He can tell us we are all wrong.

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.
