Intrepid Kathleen Purvis traveled extensively throughout the South
to create this first-ever guide to the region's burgeoning craft
liquor movement, capturing her journey in the creation of six
original Liquor Trails. As fascinating as the craft itself are the
distillers' experiences and backstories. Purvis chronicles them
with verve and insight, bringing her knowledge of southern foodways
and traditions to bear on the flourishing of the distiller's art.
She shows how new entrepreneurs, part of the all-American food and
drink renaissance, are positioning themselves throughout the South
to find both the inspiration and land ranging from West Virginia to
Louisiana for their farm- or farm-ingredients-based distilleries.
They are creating new and sought-after bourbons, whiskies, rums,
gins, and much more. Their cordials are flavored with pumpkins,
raspberries, peaches, and other local products; not long ago, a
West Virginian's black walnut liqueur won the prize for the best
nut cordial at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Driven
by legacy and passion, today's distillers are creating a new
southern tradition and, now, a unique way to tour the South with an
inimitable writer. Each Liquor Trail covers one or several states
and features particularly worthy distilleries that Purvis has
personally selected. The trails also feature maps, a complete
listing of distilleries in each territory, on-site photographs, and
some dynamite drink recipes direct from the distillers.
