New Scotch.... can't wait!

[vvvvvvv]

I'm just drinking neat room temp. Lovin' it!

THIS is the ONLY way to drink a fine scotch ...

THIS!

Scotch and smoke breath..great combo for the ladies i bet.

Actually, it is, but only with quality cigars and quality single malt Scotch.

Seriously... my cigars have to pass not only my personal preferences test but also the "sniff test". If my wife can lay her head on my chest after I've been smoking and say "damn you smell good", that cigar is locked in as a keeper. While I've had some not pass that test, I've never had any of good quality actually fail ("damn babe go take a shower") either. Only the low-end stuff has done that.

On Scotch, I've never kissed anyone that didn't like quality whisky on my breath, whether that be single malt Scotch, cask strength single barrel bourbon, or other good quality whisky.

My problem with rocks was that they tended to water down my whiskey too much, but I liked whiskey cool. I bought one of those ice cube trays that makes a HUGE ice cube (2" cubed) and it's the perfect solution. An ice cube that big keeps the whiskey cool and the flavor profile changes slowly as you drink because it takes a long time for the cube to melt.

Hmmmm ... now you've tempted me to venture away from my typical neat drink ... in the heat of the summer I admit I've longed for a touch of cool at times ...

These work better than stones and don't dilute:

Why not just store your whiskey in the freezer?

Seems to me that something like this would change the taste.

FWIW, I'm usually a bourbon guy but the ONLY scotch I'll drink is Glenmorangie.

The Famous Grouse makes a blend called Snow Grouse which is made to do exactly that: http://www.thefamousgrouse.com/store/whisky/snow-grouse-70cl-40

Alas, I have not located a bottle yet.

Low Flyer is a blend of Macallan and Highland Park's leftovers..... not a bad mix IMO.

Thats where my drinks are at.

I did not know you were a fan of the Grouse! That is my favorite blended of all. This Snow Grouse you speak of, I have not heard of.
