    Bro, I take 4 square ice cubes, pour 3 oz of Old Forester 100 Proof and not even Bonded for a measly 25 bucks and that's a killer night IMO. The melt, for me, brings out the flavor in my night cap. Doesn't matter if it's Old Grandad or Clyde May puffing on a Montecristo No. 2 or a Saint Luis Rey Rothchild. Love it.

    I tend to make an old fashioned or a whiskey sour, so it gets chilled when I stir or shake respectively. So those that hold well but don't chill well may work best for that. I tend to use small ice for the stir/shake and then use a big ice ball in the glass after.

    The only reason I keep a few whiskey stones in the freezer, is if my place gets a little warm while at work. Living in Arizona will do that. If a bottle gets warm, I can toss a few stones to take it down closer to a room temp without dilution. Very detail oriented way to do the test Jeremy. Props!

In the zip bag the ice cubes stick together in the freezer after a while and when you take them out they crack when you touch them with your hands due to the stress in the material. I am grateful for every tip. 😊 #coldwhiskey #freeviski Thanks for your videos.
