  You’re thinking of vodka

  Whiskey is highly diverse

  Real whiskey on the rocks has a huge number of flavors depending on the age and manufacturer. Jack Daniels is the bottom of the rung.

    On the rocks? How dare you. Ice masks the flavor. It’s only for people who want to drink whiskey but don’t actually like the taste.

      Gonna have to stop you there. Ice/water enhances the flavor and makes even rot gut whiskey palatable.

        A few drops of ice water, yes. But raising the temperature of the whiskey itself masks the flavor. Whiskey is best on room temperature.

  Vodka is meant to be colorless and flavorless, ideally pure water and ethanol.

  Whiskey is made to retain flavors from the grain it isade from, and aged in charred oak barrels to impart flavors from the wood. The region of the world and the process used causes a variety of flavors.
