No. Why would you drink watered down booze? On ice is fine but as it melts the less good it is.

Whiskey and coke/pepsi or whiskey and cider. Old fashioned are good no water. that's crazy.

Nope, the water combines with the whiskey to mellow it in a manner that leaves it much smoother and pleasant-tasting.

Any additional water will lead to increased hydration levels, so that would not be an invalid argument, although alcohol itself is a diuretic, so you might just pee it out faster later.

You are a tequila and rum guy. Whiskey tastes like watered down crap when it's watered down. I can concede scotch, maybe. And gin with club soda. Vodka can be watered down, but not whiskey.

You're on the right.

Can we also assume Spaulding only drinks cask strength 130 proof whiskey. Anything else would just be watered down.

I butt chug the hell out of it.

as noted above, in Scotland they give you a little bity pitcher of water with your whisky. they don't put ice in it either.

I read that too and tried it. Adding small amounts of water does bring out different flavors in scotch. What a delicious magical beverage.

While all whisky isn't scotch, all scotch is whisky. And mellowing it with water in various forms makes it better imo. Except for white lightning/rocket fuel.

If you are resorting to butt chugging it, perhaps you should have added a little water to consume orally. But that is just me
