Mixed? I'm not sure what you're talking about. But the guy above was talking about drinking single malt scotch on the rocks. It's not the temperature. Single

Single malt is enjoyed because of its taste and character, but if it gets mixed with enough water, from melting ice for example, it breaks and loses its appealing qualities.
Single Malt + Water = Former Delicious Whiskey. But in an emergency, you can use ice to make some awful blended whiskey potable.
- sp4rki 16y agoI meant mixed as in blended, but I understand I could have been talking about mixing whisky with redbull so sorry for using that word. You do realize I was agreeing with you though? Single malt whisky should not be watered down by ice, but if you like it cold, use a cold glass to bring its temperature down (not my cup of tea but its a sensible choice). In contrast blended whisky (read Chivas, or Johnny black) while the flavor is ok they have very little "character" and sometimes taste better on the rocks.
- gizmomagico 16y agoWhy the cringing then, if you agreed? Edit: OK, maybe you confused me twice, first by seemingly cringing at me, and then by talking about "mixed" whiskey. I guess you may have meant that the post I was replying to made you cringe.
