商品簡介
The world's best known and probably most respected writer on beer and whiskey takes readers on a lavishly and colorfully illustrated tour not only of whiskey-producing countries, but also of the whiskey family, aromas and flavors and the factors that influence them, and the myriad ways he has found or heard of to enjoy it. Perhaps a surprise to some is the inclusion of Japan among the whiskey countries. Annotation c2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
