Whisky. Bourbon. Scotch. Rye. Adapted from A Field Guide to Whisky by Hans Offringa, A YEAR OF GOOD WHISKY features 313 delectable entries, including advice on choosing, buying, and drinking whisky like a pro. Fascinating trivia about the process of aging, distillation, and history. Plus whisky-related quotes (There is no bad whiskey. There are only some whiskeys that aren't as good as others.--Raymond Chandler); mouth-watering tasting notes; and top-notch recommendations--like Macallan 12 Year Old Double Cask, characterized by vanilla, citrus, and light oak, combined with rich fruit, sherry, and spicy wooden notes. It's the perfect gift for anyone with a taste for whisky's ineffable appeal.
