The Whisky Dictionary is both a celebration of the world of whisky and a window into it. Iain Hector Ross has ranged deep, far and wide into the industry to capture whisky speak in a single guide. He has literally climbed inside the distilling process to feel the heat, savour the aromas and absorb the words that swirl around the making and sharing of Scotch whisky. Now this language itself has been 'casked' between the covers of this delightful guide, and whisky enthusiasts the world over can understand, explore and enjoy Scotch in all its wondrous diversity in a single publication.
