Book Description
Scotland’s national drink is available in more than 300 brands, styles, and ages, reflecting the diversity of the Scottish people themselves. This fully updated, beguiling buyer and collector’s guide—which won the Glenfiddich Visual Award—features 250 color photographs, maps, and illustrations, and combines the fascinating story of Scotch whisky’s origins with an explanation of the distilling process, including how the various waters, malts, peats, and barleys used affect the flavor and value of the mature product. Tips for conducting a proper tasting session and a directory of whisky societies are provided, as well as tasting notes for the products of every Scottish whisky distiller operating since World War II.

A "Must Have" Book on Malt Whisky,
By jb77 "jb77" (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Malt Wiskey (Hardcover)
This is one of two "must have" books on Scotch Malt Whisky. It contains a wealth of information and is beautifully illustrated. This book contains a detailed analysis of the unique flavors in malt whisky which can be found no where else. Charles MacLean is a legend in Scotch whisky circles, and this fabulous book is his best work. If you love Malt Whisky, buy this book.
