111 untold stories about whisky
The world of whisky is full of incredible stories. This unique book brings together those stories, making it the perfect complement to other books about distilling, tasting, and travel. Enjoy heart-warming tales of secret recipes, haunted castles, hidden distilleries, lavish drinkers, and the first whisky tourist. And discover aspects of whisky you won't find in any other book.
For more than forty years, the Flemish writer and whisky devotee Fernand Dacquin has travelled through the wonderful world of whisky in search of its most striking stories and images. Now he distills those experiences into 101 stories, presented in his trademark, tongue-in-cheek style. The result is a special book, in a handy format which allows you to leaf through the pages with one hand and keep the other hand free for a glass of whisky.
Autorenporträt
Fernand Dacquin has traveled the world as a journalist, specializing in tourism and distillates. He's visited Scotland, the birthplace of whisky, hundreds of times and drew inspiration from all these trips for articles on whisky in newspapers and magazines in Flanders and the Netherlands. In 2011, he became Keeper of the Quaich, which is usually reserved for people from the whisky industry itself. He is co-organizer of the International Malt Whisky Festival in Ghent and also took part in the festival in The Hague. In 2017, he was inducted into the Royal Celtic Society, founded by Sir Walter Scott in 1820, for his contribution to publicizing and spreading Scottish culture.
