Scotch Whisky (Mitchell Beazley Pocket Guides) - Hardcover
After a brief history of this world-renowned spirit, the book concentrates on Scotch whisky today. The author explores how it is made, the whisky categories and whisky regions. He then explains how to appreciate whisky to the full, focusing on aroma, flavour and style.
The main part of the book is a comprehensive A-Z directory of whiskies, divided into two sections: single malt and grain whiskies, and blended whiskies. Each entry has detailed information on the distiller, owner, available expressions and tasting notes.
The appendices provide a full range of supplementary information including a flavour checklist, recommended distilleries to visit and advice for whisky collectors.
