The book
The book reveals the unique characteristics of American whiskeys, which are still largely unknown outside their country of origin. How is it made? What is straight whiskey? What is sour mash? How do barrels of North American white oak (Quercus alba) contribute to the flavour?
The foreword is written by Chris Morris, master distiller at Woodford Reserve and a leading figure in the bourbon industry, who created the American whiskey aroma wheel more than 20 years ago. Renowned journalists and authors Hans and Becky Offringa, aka ‘the whiskey couple’, tell the eventful history of American whiskey, from the arrival of the first European settlers through the dark days of Prohibition to today’s current proliferation of craft distillers.
An exquisite map of the United States indicates 122 distilleries, whose bourbons and whiskeys are classified by aroma in the final chapter of the book.
