Customer Reviews

the definitive guide to single malts

I actually purchased this book in a sweater shop in Fort William. It was the one book that the distillery blenders and everday whisky fans continuously recommended. I started to take notes in the margins each time I tried a new single malt. The descriptions are brief, but the coverage is rather comprehensive. The rankings for sweetness and peatiness, though I often disgaree with them, are helpful in selecting new things to try--if I like one that is a 7/3, I can look for other 7/3 rankings in the book. I always take this along with me when I head to the whisky shop. Highly recommended for anyone who is serious about single malt scotch.
