Whiskey From Tennessee

2006-03-19

   
 

Tennessee is not just Elvis Presley and Tina Turner. The state also produces excellent whiskey with a smooth, full-bodied taste. Two distilleries exist in the state; the Jack Daniel Distillery and the George Dickel Distillery. They both use the unique process of filtering the whiskey through sugar maple charcoal, also called the Lincoln County Process.

Many of us have enjoyed a Maker’s Mark Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. So where is it made and how did it all begin?

Peat Smoke & Islay Spirit - Andrew Jefford

2005-04-13

   
 

Peat Smoke & Islay Spirit is one of the most extensive books ever written about the whisky island of Islay and its distilleries. Andrew Jefford writes in an easy-going manner about the Island’s history, nature and the active distilleries; Ardbeg, Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, Caol Ila, Lagavulin and Laphroaig. There are several especially interesting sections such as how the phenol content (ppm, or ‘parts per million’) varies through the production process or how much the character of the water influences the finished spirit. Although the book has few pictures and illustrations it is still a must-have for a true fan of Islay whiskies.
