How do you like your Scotch?

Poll question: How do you like your Scotch?

[Bertha Venation]

1. MacAllan

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.

[ironflange]

2. It's Lagavulin for me

On ice.

[Bertha Venation]

9. are there varying degrees of turpentine-ness?

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

3. Single malt, straight. Anything else is a crime.

[MrScorpio]

4. Double, Straight up in a dirty glass

Any thing else is for wimpy girly men

[Rabrrrrrr]

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.

6. In My Belly

7. With a splash

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!!!"

8. I like it just fine, thanks.

Another? Sure! :evilgrin:

[put out]

10. I like mine

natural, under the kilt.

[soothsayer]

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!

12. SAme way I like my women.

Both depressants must be at least 18 years old.

13. "When I drink whisky, I drink whisky

and when I drink water I drink water." Michaelene (sp) O'Flynn aka Barry Fitzgerald - as stated to Mary Kate Danneher (sp) aka Maureen O'Hara in "The Quiet Man.

Neat, please.

[rbnyc]

14. Scotch, neat; Bourbon, rocks;

Gin and Tequilla, up.

[BackDoorMan]

15. I like rocks...try and find an ice cube in the UK....

But they have some fine scotch's in Scotland.

Also loved the Irish whiskey in Ireland (on the rocks.)

[greatauntoftriplets]

16. Irish.

Neat Jamesons.

[Maeve]

28. A lady with taste!

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....

[kodi]

17. actually, i'm drinking some now & i put it in the freezer. i like it cold.

right now i am getting reacquainted with an old friend, johnny walker black.

i had forgotten how smooth a blended scotch could be.

[BackDoorMan]

18. So am I...

I like Johnny Walker Red

[alfredo]

19. with warm milk. honest. try it.

[Deja Q]

20. With honey and herbs

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:

[kayleybeth]

21. Scotch

I'm just a girl, but... Ptttuueey! Can't stand the stuff.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

27. Me neither

And I'm no girl.

Port wine. Mmmmmmm.

[sexybomber]

22. however it gets me drunk. (nt)

[Spirochete]

23. On an easy dispenser roll

makes it easier to wrap presents.

[Whitacre D_WI]

24. Neat, neat, neat!

To quote the Damned.

The only liquor I mix with anything is gin.

[ProfessorGAC]

25. Yes, Yes, Yes

You're Right, Right, Right.

26. I don't like Scotch, but needed to click something anyway.

:hi:

[geniph]

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.
