Summary

A wonderful gift for any whiskey enthusiast, old or new, Greg Dillon weaves together anecdotes and historical accounts from the annals of over 40 different distilleries to form a casual, conversational book that brings the history of whiskey to life. Through fact, myth and humour, each chapter guides the reader through legendary tales that date as far back as the 15th century, chronicling 19 whiskey brands that have contributed to the phenomenal success of Scotch whisky. 'The Great Drams of Scotland' tracks how this spirit has been enjoyed over the last 200 years, bringing us to where whisky is today: a globally loved and celebrated drink enjoyed neat, mixed, shaken, stirred and over rocks.
