A whisky világatlasza az egyetlen útmutató, amelyre a whiskyrajongóknak és az újoncoknak egyaránt szükségük van ahhoz, hogy mindennel tisztában legyenek, amit a whiskyről tudni kell. A 34 részletes térképet tartalmazó, gyönyörűen illusztrált könyv részletes és átfogó utazás a világ whiskyjeinek történelmén, előállításán, lepárlóüzemein és tételein keresztül. A nagyszabású, teljesen átdolgozott harmadik kiadás már a whiskyszíntér számos olyan izgalmas szereplőjével is foglalkozik, mint Mexikó, a skandináv országok, Kína és Korea. A könyv több, mint a lepárlók felsorolása, hiszen azt vizsgálja, mivé válik a whisky a 21. században. Nemcsak a lepárlók elhelyezkedését, hanem az ízeket és a gondolkodásmódot is feltérképezi. Skócia szeszfőzdéinek részletes bemutatása mellett Írország, Japán, az USA, Kanada és a világ többi része hasonlóan átfogó és bővített leírást kap. A világ whiskyatlasza felkeresi a világ legfontosabb whiskytermelő országait és régióit, megkóstolja a stílusok egyre változatosabb és lenyűgözőbb választékának legjobb tételeit: single malt, single grain, rozs, bourbon, single pot still, kukorica, őshonos gabonafélék és még sok egyéb. Több mint 480 whiskyt mutatunk be kilenc ízcsoportba sorolva, így mindenki könnyedén kiválaszthatja az ízlésének és az alkalomnak megfelelőt. Soha nem volt még ennyi whiskygyártó ország, soha nem volt még ennyi lepárlóüzem és ekkora választék. A whisky a változatosság, a kifinomultság és az élvezetek világát kínálja. Kísérletezzen egy új ízzel, vagy lazítson egy régi kedvenccel, és merüljön el ebben az ideális társban!
