Whiskey Myths Busted: Yes, You CAN Put Ice in It (And Other Scandalous Truths)

Ah, whiskey. That smooth, golden elixir that whispers sweet nothings to your soul. But for some reason, a bunch of so-called “whiskey experts” (you know the type—monogrammed pocket squares, judging your drink choices from across the bar) have filled the world with ridiculous myths. Well, it's time to shake things up—Flying Tumbler style. Paddy the Pigeon’s here to ruffle some feathers and set the record straight.

Myth #1: You Should NEVER Put Ice in Whiskey

Rubbish. If you like your whiskey with a couple of ice cubes, then plop ‘em in. Ice helps open up flavors and keeps things cool—literally. Plus, Paddy’s been known to enjoy his Flying Tumbler on the rocks after a long day of, well, being a legend. And if it’s good enough for a world-traveling pigeon, it’s good enough for you.

Myth #2: Real Whiskey Lovers Only Drink It Neat

Oh, behave. Look, whiskey is meant to be enjoyed, not admired like an art exhibit. Whether you drink it neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail that makes your granny blush, Flying Tumbler’s got your back. Paddy’s motto? “If it makes you happy, it’s the right way.”

Myth #3: Older Whiskey is Always Better

Age might make some things better—cheese, relationships, maybe even pigeons—but whiskey? Not necessarily. Flying Tumbler’s got the perfect balance of youthful mischief and smooth sophistication. Why wait decades when you can enjoy a whiskey that’s ready for action right now?

Myth #4: Whiskey Should Only Be Sipped Slowly

Who made this rule? Some guy in a leather armchair with a pocket watch? Forget that. Flying Tumbler is for adventures, celebrations, and those “just one more” kind of nights. Sip it, shoot it, mix it—Paddy won’t judge.

Myth #5: You Need a Fancy Crystal Decanter

Look, we love a bit of style, but whiskey tastes just as good from a mason jar, a coffee mug, or straight from the bottle (don’t worry, we won’t tell). The important thing? You’ve got Flying Tumbler in your glass, and you're loving every drop.

So, forget the whiskey snobs—drink Flying Tumbler however you damn well please. Paddy approves, and frankly, he’s the only opinion that matters.

Sláinte!
