For the whiskey lover
My boyfriend was extremely excited about this gift and can’t wait to look through it. He told me he would read a book without pictures so made sure to find him one with pictures and about a topic he enjoys!

Great book, but incorrect information on distillery locations
This is a great and informative book, but there is some incorrect distillery location information. On page 112, it says that Buffalo Trace is in Lexington, KY. Buffalo Trace is in Frankfort, KY! The other ones listed in Lexington are not in that city either. Woodford Reserve is in Versailles, KY. Wild Turkey and Four Roses are in Lawrenceburg, KY, which is closer to Frankfort, KY than it is to Lexington. Please correct!

If you are looking for detailed descriptions about individual whiskeys don’t buy this book. It is a rather arbitrary collection of stories and impressions about Whiskey and especially the history, the places and the people involved in it. I like the pictures and the master distiller profiles the most. For me it’s not a book to read through. The long row one distillery after the other is tiresome to read. I pick it up when I have a whiskey and read a couple of pages, which brings me in a good mood. The author has made a great effort and the book is full of information. Also the price appears reasonable
