Whisky

Description

As well as exploring long-lost malts, MacDonald remains startlingly relevant. This little book began whisky's renaissance, through MacDonald's sense of what it means to be Scottish; his passionate discussion of why whisky - especially good whisky - matters and his notes on how, when and why to drink whisky. Remarkably, "Whisky" has never been reprinted. This facsimile commemorative edition, including an introduction by renowned whisky writer, Ian Buxton and a foreword by Charlie Maclean (author of MacLean's Whisky Miscellany), will attract wide attention from fervent whisky enthusiasts and casual dram-takers alike and promises to be the most important whisky reprint ever.

Ian Buxton is a former Marketing Director for Glenmorangie; author of Whisky: History, Hints & Tips and co-author of The Whisky Companion. He writes regularly for Whisky Magazine (UK); Fine Expressions (UK); Whisky (Russia) and other titles.

"If I could only take one whisky book to a desert island, it would be Aeneas MacDonald's Whisky." Charles Maclean "The finest whisky book ever." Dave Broom
