How do you spell colour? I don't live outside the UK, and I reckon neither do you. So spell it correctly. The spelling is down to translation, and the Irish wanting their efforts to be different.

How do you pronounce Caribbean? Do you say Caribbean or Caribbean? People from the Caribbean say it one way and people who aren’t from the Caribbean say it another. Who’s right?

This. Been on a number of distillery visits, and they advise a little drop. Not cold, and just enough to release the volatiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones I have listened too don't advise. Anyway, I couldn't care less what folk put in it. I have it straight because that's how I like it. Not because some makers say its better.

Site Supporter fatolive Posted February 14, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 14, 2021 Drop of water to release the flavours advised by any top whiskey maker it’s the reason for the ice , not to make it colder These cold stones and the like just a gimmick , but, if you like em crack on, after all it’s a drink so have it however you enjoy it .

Youri McAnespie Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Who cares. It's a drink for vagrants. After about three nay fucker could tell the difference between some 100 grand bottle and Bells from the cornershop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This I have ice because I like it. I only drink Whiskey as I don’t like Scotch Whisky and I never add water. Certainly wouldn’t add pop or owt fizzy.

Youri McAnespie Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Someone gave me a bottle a few Christmases ago, Glengoyne I think... It was rank - tasted of bommy neet, smoke and damp grass. I supped it one night when I'd no booze in, mixed with loads of ice and Cherry Coke - it was alright mixed but the hangover next day...grim. Tipped the remainder down the grid to remove 'hair of the dog' temptation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Wanderer Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Bloody love Whisky. Getting more into the peaty stuff of late but like a good Speyside too. Benromach & Lagavullin are my favourites 👌 Pouring yourselves a few glasses & watching this film will dust some of those Lockdown blues away. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Angels'_Share "Who the fuck is Pete" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disregard what others say, don't sweeten the drink and alwaya make with skimmed milk. The boor-bohn provides enough sweetness. Always make a paste of the powder before adding the rest of the milk. Leave those trying to be Edna The Inebriate Woman to their whisky/whiskey/wisci. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
