World Whiskey Hardcover – September 21, 2009

I looked at a lot of different whiskey books at a bookstore and this one has the best layout and organization style. It lists whiskeys by country (US, Ireland, Scotland, Japan, and others). Then within each country, it further breaks down into regions. There are good size pictures of each whiskey. The descriptions are just the right length to give you a good background. There are also random fact sheets mixed in throughout the book. I bought this for my boyfriend who is a whiskey enthusiast and he absolutely loved it. There is also a handy checklist in the back to keep track of whiskeys that you have tasted. For aesthetic purposes, it is large enough to look nice on a coffee table, but it is also a good size for traveling with. I highly recommend this book of all the whiskey books that are out there.

Well put together book with great pics and good information on almost EVERY type of whiskey/bourbon made. Great gift for people that like their drinks.

This book was excellent. It talks about how whiskey's made, including some specifics for particular whiskeys. It also has a surprisingly accurate description of most every whiskey you will ever come across and pictures all throughout the book. I would recommend this book to anyone who cares about whiskey

This is a great book, well illustrated with lots of info. It was so popular with a group of friends that I bought a second copy to give as a gift.

This is a wonderful coffee table book about Whiskey. There are very well done photos of nearly every distiller's bottles with a good summary of each. Also, it contains simplified descriptions of the countries, regions and processes that go into making all of the different types of Whiskeys.

this is a great coffee table book...full of information...great pictures..I realize that whiskey is primarily scotch but more space for other forms such as bourbon, rye etc would help the novice

Just a beautiful book - can't tell from the site how nice the photography is but it's really an eye-catching book.

I got this for my brother in law because he is a sailor and bit of a whiskey enthusiast. Didn't hear anything back so not sure how the gift was received.
