The basic drinking methods of whisky are pure, water, ice, water and ice.

1. Pure drinking: refers to the way of tasting the original flavor without any additives, and it is not recommended for novices who drink whisky for the first time. When pouring wine, pour about one-fifth of the height of the cup.

2. Add water: If you want to drink lighter whisky, you can add water to mix it, so as to reduce the pungent smell of alcohol and release more flavor and aroma. The ratio of water to wine is 1: 1. If the age of wine is less than 12 years, the ratio of water can be increased.

3. Add ice: This drinking method is mainly for people who want to reduce the alcohol stimulation but don't want to dilute the whisky. Using a single large ice cube can prevent the ice cube from melting too fast. Add the ice cube first and then pour in about one-fifth of the whisky.

4. Add water and ice cubes: the drinking method from Japan is "water cutting". This kind of whisky has a light taste and is suitable for drinking at the table. First, add an appropriate amount of ice into the glass, and then pour it in order at the ratio of whisky 1: water 2.5.

Tasting method

1. Pure drinking method can completely feel the delicate aroma of wine. No matter what flavor of fermented grains, drinking methods can be roughly divided into "pure drinking" without ice, "Onthe Rock" with ice, and "Mizuwari" with a fixed proportion of water and ice.

2. Look at the color: the color of whisky is produced in the ripening stage when it is put into oak barrels. The color and transparency of the wine can be observed through light, and amber is the main color, but the color of the wine varies with the oak barrels made of different materials and aging time. For example, when bourbon barrels filled with bourbon whisky are used, the whisky is easier to contact with air, matures faster, and the color is lighter and light gold.
