Default Re: How to drink Johnny Walker Blue

I'm a single ice cube guy myslef. If I can make a recommendation, The Balvenie Doublewood 12 year is excellent.

For scotch and bourbon I like to drink it out of a slightly chilled glass or with one ice cube. I like it to be a little below standard room temp of 72 degrees. Smoking a premium cigar is also recommended.

WTF? The alcohol elitism in this thread is hilarious. So what if the OP asks a basic question?

Did all of you come to 2+2 with an inherent expertise in poker, or did you come here to learn because you were intrigued by the game and DIDNT KNOW SH*T?

Now its time for me to get elitist on you all. Walker Blue, IIRC, is a vatted malt, meaning its not technically a blend. It is a combination of single malts, mixed together. A "blended scotch" is about 50 percent single malt, and 50 percent rye or grain whisky. Thus, JW Blue is comprised of only single malt. SO, for anyone that said youd drink a single malt neat, but would add ice to Blue, youve just been pwned.

Another thing, who cares what someone wants to do with their own drink. I wouldnt even flinch if some dude bought a 10,000 dollar scotch and mixed it with Sunny Delight. To each his own.
