Fuck no. You drink Scotch dry or on the rocks, you can't mix it with anything.

You're a shame for all of us respected liquor lovers.

Any particular favorite brand? Johnnie Walker Double Black use to be my go-to but now it's Glenlivet 12 year.

I feel this depends on the quality. Mixing in cheap $15 bottle of Jack Daniels with Coke is a farcry compared to mixing in a $150+ bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue Label with Coke.

I like rum best, but my favourite mixed drink is probably a brandy old fashioned.

A bit of water is also acceptable, especially for higher ABV whiskeys. If it's bottled at cask strength, diluting it completely transforms the flavours.

I always keep some water on the side and take a few gulps after every few shots of Johnnie or Jameson.

Helps to beat hangovers.

That's a good idea in general, but I mean adding it to the whiskey itself. Not a lot, because you aren't looking to water it down, but adding water helps some of the more volatile flavour compounds make their way to the air-liquid interface so you can smell/taste them more readily.

My two cents:

I think bourbon is the best for mixing. I see the appeal of scotch but it's not for me. Mescal is really underrated.

But, the best alcohol is port (vintage and tawny), good meads, and complex beers imo.

Depends on the Scotch.

A top shelf scotch like Glenfiddich or Laphroaig, you drink that shit neat. But if you've got something like Johnnie Walker Red Label, which was specifically blended to be mixed with soda, then mix it with whatever you want.

Haven't had it in a few years myself.

Might grab a bottle this coming Friday.

I'm not fond of it, but it can help turn a shitty scotch into an okay rusty nail or other such concoction. I'd rather just have a scotch I like, though.

I'm not really a fan of whiskey. I've tried multiple high grade Scotches and they just tasted like burning rubber and other horrible things to me. A decent bourbon is okay mixed with soda but I can't drink it straight. I don't like drinking any hard liquor straight though. Too much burn on the back of my throat makes me feel like I've already vomited.

If I were to pick a favorite hard liquor it would be gold tequila. Mixes so nicely with so many fruity and tropical flavors. Love me some tequila and pineapple juice.

Irish whiskey is my personal favorite hard alcohol, and Bushmills is one of, if not the best of that variety. Definitely better than Jameson's, IMO.

There's a cheaper one I sometimes get called "2 Gingers" which is also good.

Bourbon is whiskey but whiskey is not bourbon. It's your classic a dentist is a doctor but a doctor is not a dentist.
