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.

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.
