A history of the making of scotch, including a taste guide.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
Under international law only the Scots may distill scotch whisky; therefore only a true Scotsman could write this book. Brander's Guide to Scotch Whisky provides an illuminating history of scotch making, from the days of the illicit distillers to the present, and includes a Directory of Malt Whiskies, with the background to each and a guide to their tastes. Throughout, Michael Brander concentrates on the traditional twice-distilled pot-still malt whiskies, themselves the basis of the better blended scotch whiskies. A litre measure of information on scotch in a miniature container, Brander's Guide to Scotch Whisky is a must-have for anyone who enjoys fine spirits. (4 1/2 X 7 3/4, 184 pages)

Watered-down Scotch Guide,
This review is from: Brander's Guide to Scotch Whiskey (Paperback)
While I find the merit in what Brander wants to accomplish, I found his guide needed slighty more aging. And despite displaying some subtle complexity, it still pales in comparison with Michael Jackson's 'bible' of scotch whisky. This guide provides a nice, simple taste of scotch whisky, making it a good fit for the beginner or novice. More mature drinkers will appreciate the flavor of the guide, but come away thirsting for something heartier.
