Fortnum & Mason Food & Drink Awards Drink Book of the Year 2015.

Annual Spirited Awards - Nominated for Best New Spirits Book 2015.

Today's

world of spirits is experiencing an explosive increase in craft

distillers and pioneers of new distillates. It's about men and women

tearing up rule books and creating new spirits with extraordinary

personality and passion.

This book uncovers the best spirits the

world has to offer. These are not necessarily the best-known examples

on the planet - though if they are good, they have a place here - but

the best crafted and most interesting. Spirit by spirit Joel Harrison

and Neil Ridley explain what you need to know to appreciate a spirit -

its ingredients, its classic forms, the choices a distiller makes in

creating it - and offer their picks to 'Drink Before You Expire' - the

world's best examples of their type, from gin and rum to shochu and

tequila. There are plenty of suggestions for how to drink too, with

innovative and classic cocktails and their insider tips on getting the

best out of your spirits.
