Best nonfiction book I own

Some girl bought me this book long ago, it has all the history of every type of alcohol imaginable. Best non-fiction book I own, great read on the pooper. For example, bourbon is made in Kentucky and Tennessee because there were no taxes on making liquor there in the 1700's, so whoever wanted to make bourbon moved there from the colonies. It also informed me that a bar I went to in Prauge, U Fleku, has been open since the 15th century.

This is such a super book. All the stuff you need to know about what is a good buy, plus extrodinary details on the history, making and regional characteristics of wines beers and spirits.The information we could test, about Australian Wine was spot-on, so can only surmise the rest is too. There were however a few German spelling errors in the beer section. Good at all levels of interest.
