First published in 2004, Juice Jargon has been the text of choice
for wine schools around the world. Its no nonsense approach to
talking about wine has been adopted by those who have tired of the
vinobabble of the mainstream wine press. With just a handful of
everyday common words Dr. Reiss has shown the world not only how to
talk about wine, but how to actually share the experience of
tasting a wine. As the author of WineEducation.com and with his
experience garnered from teaching wine courses for over ten years,
and twenty years as a wine steward before that, Stephen Reiss has
shown an uncanny knack for making the daunting approachable for
wine lovers of every level. More than just a treatise on talking
about wine, and more than just a wine dictionary, Juice Jargon is a
primer for all aspects for anyone wishing to know more about the
world of wine. The new fifth edition continues on the tradition of
the last decade, with updates to reflect the ever changing
landscape of wine.
Home Production of Vodkas, Infusion and Liqueurs is another first
of its kind book from Stanley and Adam Marianski. This is not just
a collection of recipes, but a set of rules that govern the process
of making vodka and other alcoholic beverages. A quote from the
book: "From the start, we decided not to write another recipe book.
A collection of recipes does not make a person proficient in a new
skill. You have to know the How and Why of making spirits; you have
to know the rules that govern the process. First of all you have to
realize that alcohol is just a tool, albeit a very important one.
Once you understand how to manipulate the properties of alcohol,
the rest will fall into place." To get the reader started, a
collection of 103 detailed recipes are included, which can be
studied and used as a reference. By carefully reading this book you
will discover that producing new spirits is almost like cooking,
one needs to first know the basics and then let the imagination run
wild. Everything falls into place and making new drinks becomes
routine. After practicing the technique of creating drinks a couple
of times, the spirits will consistently be of high quality, become
crystal clear and look beautiful. The process can become an art
form.
