A short look at the history of whisky and how it’s drunk today, accompanied by illustrations from the British Library archives. Includes an invocation of irony, lots of realisation that the English were complete gits in the past, and one severed digit.
A brilliant romp around the world of whisky with the wonderful Billy as your trusty guide.
Blair Bowman
It’s an easy, enjoyable read that somehow teaches you things without you even noticing it.
