Whisky by Aeneas Macdonald
As well as exploring long-lost malts, MacDonald remains startlingly relevant. This little book began whisky's renaissance, through MacDonald's sense of what it means to be Scottish; his passionate discussion of why whisky, especially good whisky, matters and his notes on how, when and why to drink whisky. Remarkably, Whisky has never been reprinted. This facsimile commemorative edition includes an introduction by renowned whisky writer Ian Buxton and a foreword by Charlie Maclean (author of MacLean's Whisky Miscellany). Whisky will attract wide attention from fervent whisky enthusiasts and casual dram-takers alike, promising to be the most important whisky reprint ever
"If I could only take one whisky book to a desert island, it would be Aeneas MacDonald's Whisky" Charles Maclean "The finest whisky book ever." Dave Broom"
Aeneas Macdonald was the pseudonym of George Malcolm Thomson. He was author of some twenty well-regarded books and died in 1996. Whiskey was published in 1930, under the pseudonym Aeneas MacDonald, which he never used again, in deference to his mother. His family were strict teetotalers and he did not wish to offend her sensibility on the subject.
