Jim Murray's Whisky Bible: 2009

Description

"Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2009" is the sixth edition of the highly successful and innovative book that had its genesis in 2003. Now well established as the market leader, the "Bible" is published well in time for the annual Christmas whisky-buying surge and takes account of all the latest developments in the world of the wee dram. What makes this book such a tour de force, however, is the tasting notes on hundreds and hundreds of different brands. The author has travelled around the world checking out whisky from distilleries as far-flung as Argentina and Thailand, as well as the world-leaders in Scotland, Ireland, the United States and Japan. In terms of whisky, this is the gospel!
