Scotch Whisky: Its History, Production and Appreciation is an in-depth look at the origins of Scotch whisky beginning with the development of the art of distillation in antiquity and its evolution through the Middle Ages leading finally to the birth of whisky in the 13th century. The process of producing whisky is thoroughly explored from both the standpoint of modern scientific distillation as well as that of the “stillman’s art.” Additional chapters explore both single malts and grain based whiskies as well as the ubiquitous blends. Finally we explore the sensory appreciation of Scotch Whisky and the various systems that have been proposed for describing and evaluating Scotland's golden nectar.
