HOW TO ENJOY
highball
A chilled highball beautifully brings out the inherent flavor and fullness of whisky. It also sets off the taste of various foods.
1
Fill a glass with ice and let chill.
2
Pour chilled whisky in to taste.
3
Stir.
4
Add chilled soda (3- 4 parts soda to 1 part whisky)
5
Give a single stir from bottom to top with a bar spoon.
6
Add a twist of grapefruit or lemon citrus. Enjoy!
Tips for enhancing your drinking pleasure
The highball is a refreshing whisky drink, and the secret is not to overstir it so it doesn't lose its fizz. Also recommended is highball without ice, which lets you savor the whisky's flavor and sweetness more.
Be sure to properly chill the glass, whisky, and soda first. For extra fragrance add lemon peel, which makes the flavor even more refreshing.

HOW TO ENJOY
on the rocks
HOW TO ENJOY
on the rocks
Simply add ice to whisky in your own dynamic style. The musical clink of the ice striking the glass with every sip is truly a delight.
1
Place a large ice cube in a glass.
2
Pour in whisky to taste.
3
Stir gently with a bar spoon.
4
Prepare a chaser.
Tips for enhancing your drinking pleasure
What makes or breaks whisky on the rocks is whether or not it's cold enough. If the glass is not cold, fill it with plenty of water and ice; once it's chilled, empty it before preparing the drink.
Another important thing is to use solid ice that doesn't melt easily. If possible use an ice tray and make fairly large, solid cubes. It's also a good idea to prepare a chaser such as chilled mineral water.

HOW TO ENJOY
hot whisky
HOW TO ENJOY
hot whisky
An exquisite treat with a delicious aroma wafting from the warm glass. It can be enjoyed in many different ways, going nicely with a great variety of toppings like citrus.
1
Warm a heat-resistant glass by filling it with hot water.
2
Fill the glass one-third to one-quarter with whisky.
3
Add two to three times that amount of hot water.
4
Stir gently with a bar spoon.
5
Enjoy.
Tips for enhancing your drinking pleasure
Hot whisky goes well with many different toppings, including lemon and other citrus fruit. Or why not devise your own? Cinnamon sticks, perhaps, herbs like clove or basil, even jam or dried apples. The water should optimally be at a temperature of 80 °C.
Be sure to warm the glass with hot water before pouring in the whisky. This drink can also be enjoyed outdoors in a small Sierra cup: it really warms you up when you're in the mountains or at the riverside.
