I am freezing up some 7 up till it is still liquid, but there must be chunks of ice in the bottle. Then I am going to splash some on Chivas Regal and enjoy several glasses. How do you take you scotch? ( or other libations )

There is one Scotch, Johnny Walker Gold, that is made particularly to be put in the freezer. Its improved flavour was discovered by accident and then tweaked to improve it.

Depending on the brand, straight or with just a splash of water.

I have had Johnny Walker, red, black, green, and blue, but never had JW Gold. Maybe it is because I an a creature of habit and go straight for what I know and never check the other bottles, I have never seen or heard of JW gold. What is a cost of a bottle?

Well from a British perspective it is heretical, but with soda on the rocks.

But this is a white drinks time of the year.

Never bought one, as it's given to me by their rep. Basically the only blend I regularly drink, but a guess is ~$100

Singlemalt - neat in the winter and on the rocks in the summer, my favorite right now is glenmorangie la santa 12 year old
Blended - with a splash of water.

blue is the top brand they have, gold is second highest.
Don't drink blue unless somebody offers to buy and generally try a keep purchases under $100. i've said so long to a few good ones ove rhte last couple of years and also try to get deals on trips. I once bought an Anniversary McCallum in Scotland, as I hadn't ever seen it here. I bring it back and within a week I see it on the LCBO shelf, CHEAPER!! wtf! It's basically they will charge what they think you'll pay.

i ain't saying i buy blue often. i more or less do it if i am at a nice steak house. grab one or 2 and sip while i eat a nice steak. i don't drink scotch enough to warrant spending the 2 bills on a bottle.

Finished up a bottle of Old Parr superior recently. Not readily available at LCBO so I always look for it in Duty Free.Got it for $80US in duty free.

Never tried the JW Blue, Gold or Green. The red is like water and the Black doesn't seem to feel as strong as my favourite Chivas Regal.

Picked up a couple bottles of Chivas in duty free for $23US for 750ml.

I used to be accustomed watering down my scotch with coconut water but now try to just have it with ice or slight water.

Single malts I drink straight no ice if it's winter, one block in summer.

As far as Vodka goes, Absolute is good enough. I've had it with Tonic water, HF corn syrup laden aloe drinks, or just cranberry juice.
