This is a reissue edition of the previously published titlePeat Smoke and Spirit(9780747245780), published in 2005.'This is not simply an appreciation of whisky, but a voyage into the history and geography of a tiny Scottish island'Daily MailThose who discover malt whisky quickly learn that the malts made on the Isle of Islay are some of the wildest and most characterful in the malt-whisky spectrum. InWhisky Island, Islay's fascinating story is uncovered: from its history and stories of the many shipwrecks which litter its shores, to the beautiful wildlife, landscape and topography of the island revealed through intimate descriptions of the austerely beautiful and remote countryside. Interleaved through these different narrative strands comes the story of the whiskies themselves, traced from a distant past of bothies and illegal stills to present-day legality and prosperity. The flavour of each spirit is analysed and the differences between them teased out, as are the stories of the notable men and women who have played such a integral part in their creation. | Whisky Island by Andrew Jefford, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
