Opinion has always been divided on that. Sod science - I know what my taste buds are telling me
Yes, but you said any other way is sacrilege, which is a bit different to your personal preference.

well ....it won't freeze coz it's a spirit ......i usually have my whiskey with a 3rd water (bottled) and an ice block or two .......i find the water extends and deepens the flavour so you get the feeling you are almost sitting in the malting shed.
Yes. In my opinion watering down good whisky is sacrilege.

Well, I've been to a few distilleries and it is certainly not sacrilege. Good whisky is so varied, hard to say every single one has to be consumed the same, always worth keeping an open mind. I have a Penderyn on the go that does benefit from a tiny splash of water and was presented as such at the distillery, and really does release more flavour, whereas my Glengoyne doesn't and is much better neat.
Now, adding ice on the other hand...

I think I will form a band with some Irish lads and record a single titled as this....

It's all a personal thing of course, but with respect I have been to The Highlands several times, which I love, and have been to quite a few Whisky tastings, without fail they have said that malt whisky should have just a little water in it to truly release the flavours.
Fair enough - it's one of those arguments that will go on for time immemorial!

I've done the fridge for some very light speysides that benefited from being slightly colder but were markedly watered down with water or ice. Wouldn't have the fridge or freezer space for my full collection though - usually about 20 bottles on the go, none massively dear however.

Time immemorial is in the past. Usually recognised as 1189 AD.

Oops I did it again! I’ve got another bottle of my freezer special for Christmas. Let’s see if it’s as good as I remember!
