The most comprehensive and useful whiskey guide I've found. the author makes it fun and interesting to learn about whiskeys from around the globe. As a result of her descriptions and suggestions, I've enjoyed a number of outstanding whiskeys I pro would never have tried. Well-explained, knowledgeable, and wise

proper guide

Awesome study even if you are not going to make your own. Amusing, informative, brilliant for anyone interested in American whiskey in general, records, booze technological know-how, etc. Might make a terrific present or coffee desk book Tough to place down, you may in all likelihood plow through it in an afternoon or that stated, I used it for recommendations to assist me make whiskey. And it was proper.

interesting guide

As a beginner I refer to it a lot. For me it was I needed to get started but wish there was a little more detail. Meaning if you don't know anything about distilling you need every detail even if it's boring.

highly recommended

A really cool alcohol recipe book. It`s easy to read. The step-by-step instructions are clear. All the ingredients are not hard to find. I guess it would be cool to surprise friends by inviting them to the party with custom made drinks. Definitely will try it some tome and definitely recommend this book.

Building Your Own Still and Making Your Own Whiske

This book, for the most part, contains information adapted towards refining spirits, so consider this before obtaining. The book contains a couple of samples to take after soul formulas, in spite of the fact that I do see the cluster sizes are somewhat odd to consider most specialists have the standard 6.5-gallon cans, which these formulas won't fit into without change.
