‘One of the most playful and entertaining writers of our generation’
Val McDermid, Guardian
In an absorbing voyage as interesting to non-drinkers as to true whisky connoisseurs, sci-fi and literary author Iain Banks explores the rich heritage of Scottish whisky, from the most famous distilleries to the most obscure operations.
Whisky is more than a drink: it''s a culture that binds together people, places and products far across Scotland''s rugged terrain. Switching from cars to ferries to bicycles, Banks criss-crosses his homeland, weaving an engrossing narrative full of fascinating traditions, peculiar people, and the downright bizarre places he encounters on his journey down Scotland''s great golden road.
''The book I return to most often . . . It''s is like slipping into a warm bath.''
James Graham, THE TIMES (playwright and creator of ITV''s Quiz)
''Filled withinsightful and witty observations . . . this is a rip-roaringand informative delve into the unique history and enduring appeal of this iconic spirit.''
