| May 3, 2013 at 20:11 | comment | added | BoppreH | What about thin plastic spheres with water inside? Theoretically this allows the water to change phase without watering the drink, at the cost of reduced surface contact. Would that be more or less effective than the methods mentioned? | |

| May 3, 2013 at 16:23 | comment | added | Graham Borland | What kind of freakish experiment requires you to have cold whisky? | |

| May 3, 2013 at 14:46 | comment | added | Rory Alsop | Interestingly: Soapstone appears to be renowned for its high Specific Heat Capacity: 0.98 J/gK - about 20% greater than other natural stone. It is also incredibly dense and non-porous, which is why it is chosen for whisky stones | |
