Cold resistance is one of a fairly important resistance to have. It will protect against most cold attacks and reduce slipping on ice. However, most cold attacks will still freeze potions, destroying them.

Cold resistance is fairly easy to obtain through eating corpses. White dragons provide cold resistance, as do most "cold" monsters, like blue jellies and winter wolves. The Valkyrie starts out with intrinsic cold resistance, being from the frigid Northlands. Monks get Cold Resistance at XL 13.

Messages

Gaining Cold Resistance from eating a monster corpse produces the message "'You feel full of hot air'"

Obtaining

Different monsters have the ability to confer this instrinsic upon eating. The full list is below. The percent chance refers to the chance of gaining this instrinsic upon completely eating the corpse. Nutrition values with a 'V' are suitable for vegetarians and those marked with a '!' are suitable for vegans. See eat.c#line640 and monst.c for further information.
