An authority on Scotch whisky - An ideal addition to a collection of whisky books for beginners or whisky distilling books - Fantastic gift for any whisky lovers

Have you ever wondered why Scotch whisky tastes the way it does or questioned the history of whisky and how its flavor notes have changed over the years? If so, then this book is for you! The flavor of Scotch whisky is influenced by a combination of history, craft, science, and tradition. Whether it's single malt Scotch whisky, dalmore whisky, or peat whisky, you will learn something about it in this book.

This book is also a compendium of curiosities! Learn about bottles of scotch, including orbit bottle labels, whiskey green labels, and more. Whiskypedia also outlines information about individual distilleries, each of which provides their whiskies with unique characteristics. They are grounded in the craft and custom of the distillery and its district - but the real key influences on the flavor are how the spirit is matured, the distilling equipment itself, and how the distilling equipment is operated. This guide explores all of those influences and more.
