Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Most people meet whisky before they are ready for it. The burn arrives first. The instinct is to get past it as quickly as possible, or to avoid it altogether. So whisky gets diluted, swallowed fast, or set aside. And most of what it actually is never gets a chance to emerge. This book begins there. Not with expertise, not with ceremony, but with that first uncomfortable encounter and the question it leaves behind: what am I missing All About Whisk(e)y: The Story, Science, and Soul of the Spirit is the book the author went looking for and could not find. One that explains whisky completely, from grain to glass, from chemistry to culture, without oversimplifying what deserves to be understood. It is written by someone who came to whisky late, learned slowly, and had no interest in writing until the understanding was real. The book covers: - How whisky is made, and why every decision in production echoes in the glass years later- Scotland's distilling regions, and the wider world of bourbon, Irish, Japanese, and other styles, understood rather than ranked- How to taste with attention rather than performance, and what the palate is actually capable of- The myths that gather around whisky, about age, price, strength, and what counts as proper, separated from what is simply repeated- Collecting, pairing, and living with whisky, practically and without pretension>For those just beginning. For those who have been drinking for years and still have questions. For anyone who suspects there is more to the glass than they have found so far.…
