Scotland and Ireland's unresolved paternity dispute over whiskey is reflected even in the spelling of the word - the Irish add an "e". But that has certainly not prevented this distillate from conquering the markets on every continent to become the most consumed product of its kind in the world and winning the praise of countless enthusiasts along the way. This book is a guide to the discovery of whiskey with its long history and many unique characteristics, from its basic ingredients to its production methods and regional variations. The reader will learn what makes American whiskey different from Canadian or Irish or Scotch whiskeys as well as the meaning of the terminology found on the labels of some of the best-known brands such as "single malt", "blended" and "single grain". Some of today's most popular whiskeys are introduced in 30 information sheets that explore their characteristics and aromas and describe their particularities. Special consideration is given to Japanese whiskies that with their soft taste, limited production and attention to detail, have recently begun to stand out as internationally recognised products of excellence. The last section of the book is dedicated to a selection of cocktails, both classic and innovative, with all the necessary indications to make them accompanied by the splendid photographs of a master of still life, Fabio Petroni.

Simplify the vegan diet and customize it to fit your lifestyle with this accessible, easy-to-use guide! The vegan diet has been taking the world by storm and is seemingly becoming more and more popular by the day. But with so many rules and restrictions, it can be hard to know where to start when committing to plant-based eating. Vegan Basics is here to help make veganism work for you, not the other way around. Vegan Basics acknowledges that just because a diet works one way for one person doesn't mean it will work the same way for everyone. Instead, it offers ways to modify and customize plant-based eating to suit your needs, through short, easy-to-understand explanations of the key principles of the vegan diet that you can adapt as you see fit. Are you just not ready to give up cheese or the occasional burger? Or maybe you're interested in vegan cooking simply as a way to increase the amount of fruits and vegetables in your diet without adopting a full vegan lifestyle-and that's okay! Say goodbye to the one-size-fits-all approach to plant-based eating with Vegan Basics.

This quirky guide explains the chemistry and botanical history of over 150 plants, trees, flowers and fruits, showing how they form the bases of our favourite cocktails.

And if you really need to salve your conscience, all the recipes in one of the chapter include fruit. As if the recipes titles aren’t sufficient to set the tastebuds alight, special mention should be made of the photography.
