Code: BK-9219This fully updated edition is an in-depth, personal journey around Japan's whisky distilleries.
Award-winning spirits writer Dave Broom tells the story of Japanese whisky, unveiling the philosophy that lies behind this fascinating whisky culture and how it is aligned with Japanese concepts of craftsmanship. Following a journey across Japan he made with photographer Kohei Take, Dave investigates what makes Japanese whisky Japanese, the secret of Whisky-do.
As well as profiling the distilleries in detail, Dave interviews the whisky makers and tastes their whiskies, providing full tasting notes. He has long believed that there are parallels between Japan's approach to whisky-making and the country's many traditional arts, and interspersed throughout the book are profiles of craftspeople, chefs and bartenders, demonstrating how a spirit isn't separate from a culture but very much part of it.
Dave Broom has been visiting Japan's whisky distilleries for more than 20 years and is recognised as a leading expert on this fascinating whisky style. From Akashi's Eigashima distillery in the south-west of Japan to Hokkaido's Yoichi distillery in the north, this personal guide uncovers the essence of Japan's whiskies and how to enjoy them.
