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.
