The thing about adding a little water is some Scotch the alcohol taste is so strong...a touch of water helps to taste the fruitiness under that alcohol burn...But my favourite Scotches don't need it.
If I'm drinking Scotch with friends that are drinking beer...I'll put a couple ounces in a tall glass and add ice and soda or Sprite....I have no problem with doing that. It tastes great and you can hang and not get wasted.
I'll even do that with a great single malt...the better the Scotch the better even a cocktail tastes. I mean I won't do it with a $100 bottle, both with a 12 year old single malt or a great blend. Over 2 cubes of ice, fill glass with lemon soda and a touch of mint...it's like a Scottish Mojito!
