{"title":"Tasting guides \u0026 books","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this collection you will find whisky books and tasting guides, from compact pocket guides to extensive reference works on distilleries around the world. There are books to help you taste better, such as Whisky: A Tasting Course, books that classify whisky by flavour, such as Whisky Classified, and titles on specific subjects such as peat, Campbeltown and independent bottlers. So you can find a book that matches your level of knowledge, or a gift for the whisky lover who already knows a lot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a first introduction, The Little Book of Whisky, Whisky In Your Pocket and Everything You Need to Know About Whisky are accessible choices. If you want breadth, Whisky Opus, The World of Whisky and Great Whiskies offer an overview of distilleries and bottles from around the world. Travelling to Scotland? Take Whisky Walks Scotland or Spirit of Place with you, and keen cooks will find dishes with whisky in The Whisky Kitchen.

Everything You Need to Know About Whisky and Whisky The Manual describe how whisky is made and how to enjoy it, while The Little Book of Whisky and Whisky In Your Pocket are compact enough to take with you.

Whisky: A Tasting Course by Eddie Ludlow contains 20 tastings you work through step by step at home, so you discover which styles you enjoy.

That way you can find whiskies similar to a bottle you already enjoy. The same idea lies behind the M4W Flavour Compass, which we use to group our whiskies into four styles, from Smooth \u0026amp; Fruity to Smoky \u0026amp; Powerful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre these whisky books in Dutch?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe books in this collection are English-language editions.
