KEEP IT CHILL
Some bartenders attribute as much as forty percent of a cocktail’s overall quality to dense, clear ice.
think big
Since dense ice chills a spirit and dilutes it slowly, the boldness in Bourbons and Ryes can be savored longer when poured over large rocks and spheres.
That’s cool
Surprisingly to some “neat only” brown spirits drinkers, large format ice is especially good with American Whiskeys.
Good form
American bartenders’ desire for dense, clear ice goes back to at least the late 19th Century, when huge blocks of ice were chipped and chiseled into large cubes and spheres.
Size matters
Cold, dense ice — commonly uniform 1 inch-square cubes in bars and restaurants — is ideal for cocktails because it chills and dilutes predictably and evenly whether shaken or stirred.
