that's personal preference.. there are some purists who wouldn't dream of watering down whiskey (something about rusting the pipes on the way down or something...
others like a splash of water, or a splashof club soda, or somethign a little sweeter like ginger ale.
Others like it served over ice (which also waters it down...) others like it neat... just in a glass - room temperature...
When I'm drinking scotch, I like it in a brandy snifter, do not water it down, do not put ice it in, just the scotch and only the scotch... and the warmth of my hand warms it up even more.. giving it a wonderful taste.. like a fine brandy.
