While whiskey drinking is often framed as a personal ritual, several common rules or traditions that whiskey lovers and purists tend to talk about:
How to Drink a Whiskey Properly?
Let’s get one thing straight from the start: there is no such thing as must-have whiskey glasses.
- They say there are rules to drinking whiskey.
- They say to drink it neat to appreciate the whiskey’s full flavor and aroma.
- They say to use the right glass, don’t add ice, you’re ruining the whiskey.
- They say first Swirl and sniff before sipping like wine because it enhances your tasting experience.
-
Some say older is better, or single malt is superior to Blended whiskeys.
Whiskey purists swear by drinking it neat to capture the full flavor.
Let’s be honest: You’d like to enjoy the chill and relax, then you’d like to put ice into your whiskey glass to make your drink smoother. You’re the judge here for your drink. A few drops of water don’t hurt; it can actually open up hidden notes in the whiskey. Swirl it, sip it, shoot it down; drink how you feel, that’s the rule to have fun with drinking whiskey.
What is the rule in whiskey drinking?
The seventh-generation distiller and the master distiller of Jim Beam,
Fred Booker Noe III says;
- “You can drink bourbon any way you want to, and that goes for the glass. There are no set rules, but I like to enjoy mine in a nice rocks glass with a few cubes of ice or with a little water, too.”
