whisky should be drunk at room temperature
Ice kills the taste. Seeing as you should be enjoying the taste, ice in there is just plain wrong.

that makes sense
But some buffs insist on using water from the same region the whisky is from.

If you fill it, yes
But I find a small amount helps, and I prefer mine a little below room temperature.

no, even a single ice cube negatively affects the taste and is totally unnecessary

much as it pains me to agree with dozer, whisky should be drunk as nature intended.

As I say, I like it with a little ice
It could be worse though, I could mix decent whisky with coke.

It is, yes. My mistake. Still very nice, mind.
I did have a very nice whisky recently, although the name is currently escaping me. To Google!

EDIT: Nope, can't find it, as the bars menu doesn't list it.

try a splash of chilled water instead
not mineral water, though.

I only ever add a couple of drops of water if the strength is over 45%.
My 15 year old Glenfarclas needs a drop of soft water.
