Scotch tasting, The Macallan Cask Strength



One word.

Delicious.


OK, so the previous post seems to indicate that ice is bad, or at least bad form.
However, this so called "Cask Strength" stuff is 57.8% alcohol, making it pretty tough on it's own.
So, I used one of my cognac glasses, but added about 4 ice cubes.

Note in one of the pictures below, how as the ice melted, (and thus water added), the liquid became cloudy. I understand this is a result of the whisky being "non-chill filtered." Still tasted great.
