Review

Splendid and authoritative.
—Susy Atkins, The Telegraph

Simply the best book ever written on whisky . . . the most helpful info any whisky fan who is not a world-class expert like Broom can get.—Larry Olmsted, Forbec.com

Makes a powerful and evocative case for geography as an organizing principle for understanding whiskey in its world.—Eric Asimov, The New York Times
