When adding water to whiskey splash of what type is it?

Adding water to whiskey is called a "splash" or a "drop". It's not a specific type of water, but rather a small amount added to the whiskey.

Here's why people do it:

* Opens up the flavors: Water helps to release the aromas and flavors of the whiskey, making it more complex and enjoyable.

* Balances the alcohol: Adding water dilutes the alcohol, making the whiskey smoother and easier to drink.

* Personal preference: Some people prefer their whiskey neat, while others enjoy it with a splash of water. Ultimately, it comes down to personal taste.

There's no hard and fast rule on how much water to add. Start with a small amount (a few drops) and adjust to your liking.
