    I own most every book written about distilling liquor. This is truly one of the best. The explanations of how each type of liquor is made are more detailed than most. I also found some very good practical information about distilling techniques, such as when to make cuts, that you don’t find in other books. Also contains some real good information about commercial micro distilleries. This is a must read for the serious distiller.

    The book was in perfect condition but the title totally mis lead me to thinking it was about the art of distilling whiskey and other spirits../
    it will never teach anyone anything about distilling
    There are some brief overviews which are not in the least way instructional.

    If you want beautiful pictures however this book is loaded with them. the pictures are of buildings and bottles.

    I found the book fascinating. How different still types effect flavors etc. It’s a quick read. However, don’t look for any how to stuff. It’s wonderfully illustrated and well, made me thirst for whiskey. The part on rum I found really interesting. I would have liked to see more on Absinthe though. More of a coffee table book. If you’ve had questions about spirits this will get you started.
