Description
The ultimate guide to Scotch whisky.
Why does Scotch whisky taste as it does? Where do the flavours come from? How might they have changed over the years? The flavour of Scotch whisky is as much influenced by history, craft, and tradition as it is by science. Whiskypedia explores these influences. Introductory sections provide a historical overview and an explanation of the contribution made by each stage of the production process.
Each entry provides a brief account of the distillery's history and curiosities, lists the bottlings that are currently available, details how the whisky is made, and explores the flavour and character of each make.
This fully revised and updated edition includes new entries on the latest distilleries at Portintruan, Uile-beist, Port of Leith, Jackton, Cabrach, Dunphail, and Kythe.
