Whiskey Stones Possibly "Coolest" Product Ever How many times have you gone out and ordered a drink at a bar and after sipping for a short while, the ice has melted and now your drink is watered down. Good whiskey is meant to be sipped at about 50 degrees. Ice will not only make your drink watered down, it also causes it to dip to a temperature of 40 degrees or lower. It is not ideal to drink your whiskey cold at all! Ask anyone who loves whiskey and they will tell you that icing down your whiskey makes as much sense as ice cubes in cabernet. Enter whiskey stones.

Whiskey simply doesn't taste good cold and here is the reason why: wood oils have leeched into the whiskey, by specifically chosen casks. These oils will congeal when too cold. When this happens, the whiskey 'closes down.' Meaning that the flavor is diminished. You want that flavor of the wood oil or else you may as well be drinking some fifth rate cheap liquor from any drug store. Why even bother? Whiskey stones are made of soap stone. They are specifically made to use with whiskey and will chill your drink to around 50 degrees without watering it down or reducing your flavor experience.

If you are a fan of good whiskey, they you simply must try these. Consider it like having a wine cooler if you were someone who kept fine wines. You deserve the best whiskey and the best whiskey deserves the best treatment and care. It should be savored and honored for the time and care involved in the process of creating just the flavor that was intended. Soap stone is natural and perfectly safe for you to use. Wash them in clean water and allow to dry, then chill. Add to your drinks and sit back and enjoy, knowing that you are drinking like a boss.
