Product Description

Product Description
Gavin D Smith, shares his immense knowledge and enthusiasm with the reader, taking him on an erudite and entertaining tour of the world of whisky.

Starting with a brief history of the drink, he moves on to making whisky - legally and illegally, whiskies of the world, whisky tales and cocktails. Finally, we learn some of the statistics of the trade, its retailers, festivals, and awards.

'Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough'- Mark Twain.

'There is no such thing as a large whisky' - Oliver St John Gogarty.

'The light music of whisky falling into a glass - an agreeable interlude' - James Joyce.
