Kathy says that's the best. And she went to look at the bottle, saying "Scotch that good should not be misspelled."
Me? Cuervo Gold, please.

Sorry... I can down my Cuervo, but Scotch just seems like something to start a bonfire with. <ducks>

5. depends on the recommendation of the distiller |
|
some suggest a spot of water in the glass, some don't.
:-)
But whatever they say, scotch - always single malt - is always good neat.
But I vary my method.

This may draw many of the same posters that had opinions on my "whats your favorite scotch brand" thread a week or two ago.
I cannot afford the single malts too often, when I do it's either neat or on the rocks. The real way to sip a single malt is neat. Most of the time I am forced into the intermediate priced blends and for those it is "on the rocks, splash of water. NO FRUIT!!!"

11. no category for soda? jeez! |
|
I guess scotch and milk is out of the question than too.
But all scotches need a teeny splash of water to bring out the flavor. Try it at home! Sip without, then with a splash. MUCH bigger flavor!

However, a splash of water REALLY changes the taste of some brands, particularly the peatier scotches.
Not that I'll try it with my Irish, mind you....

Drambeui (wrong spelling, I mix up the name of the drink with the NetBEUI networking protocol...)
Or Napalm Death, which is Scotch mixed with a lot of lovely things... I recall reading it and liking the mixture, but I've never had it... might be for the best. :evilgrin:

29. I prefer Irish Mist, myself |

the single-malts are a bit much for me. My husband likes his Glenfiddich neat, with a water chaser.
