Beschreibung

"The comprehensive and visually stunning 144-page book charts the century-long history of Japanese whisky (and that's 'whisky' without the 'e' for reasons the book makes clear) as well as how it's produced and, more importantly, how it tastes. […] Lavishly illustrated throughout with color photographs, the book's second half features detailed tasting notes on various tipples so novices or connoisseur will have hands-on information to work from when exploring the world of Japanese whisky.
