Whiskey Stones are not ice cubes. They are Soapstone stones that you keep in the freezer and when the urge for a fine whiskey or whisky hits you, take a couple and drop them in your glass.
The purpose of whiskey stones is to impart a chill on your whiskey, without watering it down or dulling the flavors by making it too cold.
Whiskey is best enjoyed at the temperature of traditional Scottish parlor. Before central heating this was likely between 59 and 65 degrees. Whiskey that is too cold does not yield up its aromas and adding ice will shut them down all together. Whiskey that is too warm will have its volatiles (alcohol) released leading to a harsher experience.
Whiskey stones are designed to cool your dram just enough to bring out the flavors. The question is, do they do what they are intended for?
To answer this question I researched and found the two most popular whiskey stones and bought them both. Having used both, and done some “scientific” testing, I review both whiskey stones and compare the two,here, on Whiskey Stones Review.
