In his beautifully crafted narrative A Sense of Place, award-winning writer Dave Broom examines Scotch whisky from the point of view of its terroir—the land, weather, history, craft and culture that feed and enhance the whisky itself. Travelling around his native Scotland and visiting distilleries from Islay and Harris to Orkney and Speyside, Dave explores the whiskies made there and the elements in their distilling, and locality, which make them what they are. Along the way he tells the story of whisky's history and considers what whisky is now, and where it is going. With stunning specially commissioned photography by Christina Kernohan.
We've paired this handsome book with some scotch sipping essentials. The perfect glasses are a must, and we've found them. The striking tapered silhouette and heavy base makes them ideal for sipping Scotch neat or enjoying an Old Fashioned, should the mood strike. For those who prefer their spirits a little chilly, a set of six whiskey stones will do the job, preserving the flavor without the unwelcome dilution. And for a little sweet treat, we've included a handsome tube of Single Malt Scotch Caramels — peaty and rich, spiked with smoky highland scotch. Your gift will arrive gorgeously packaged in a ribbon wrapped kraft box ready for giving.
