Waar gaat het over?

Individual distilleries give their whiskies unique characteristics.These characteristics do not arise magically (as was oncethought), nor are they the result solely of the region (as is stillthought, by some). They have their roots in the craft and customof the distillery and of the district in which it is located, but thekey influences upon flavor are the distilling equipment itself, howit is operated, and how the spirit is matured. For the first time,Whiskypedia explores the flavor and character of every malt whiskydistilled in Scotland with reference to how it is made. Introductorysections explain the contribution made by each stage of productionand maturation, to elucidate the detailed notes about how maltwhisky is made at each distillery. The distillery entries also providehistorical notes and quirky facts. Malt whisky is the quintessential“spirit of place,” and this element of the story has been capturedby John MacPherson's camera in specially commissioned imageswhich compliment the text.
