2nd Story

Gets a click. I can't abide people who spoil decent malts (and Glenfiddich only *just* qualifies) with mixers. And mixers to me include ice and water. Keep them the fuck away from my whiskey. I've had several run-ins with barstaff when I've ordered a malt and the bastards have put ice in. I refuse to accept and refuse to pay until they give me what I, very clearly, ask for.

"A large Glenmorangie, no ice, no water please...."

An american I knew
would always ask for "Jack Daniels - no ice, no lemon, no shit."

I like to mix single malts with Diet Coke, just to see the look on some people's faces.

This worked especially well when my cousin took me to the Scotch Malt Whiskey Society.

Water is acceptable.
In fact, some decent single malts are best with a little tepid water to release the flavour -- a proper one will cloud slightly when the water is added.

Glenmorangie
Special Reserve is the one to get, only found it at the distillery though.. Failing that, the port cask is a rather fine alternative.
