Omschrijving

The ultimate guide to whiskey, brandy, rum, agave spirits, gin, vodka, and more--and how best to drink them. From Portland's Multnomah Whiskey Library spirits educators and authors of Raising the Bar.

Here is the ultimate guide to curating your spirits and building your home bar. Knowing the process of making spirits, from fermentation to distillation and manipulation, is key to understanding what goes into the bottle, how to select them, and what you're tasting. Seasoned bar professionals Brett Adams and Jacob Grier walk you through the fundamentals of spirits--from fermentation and distillation to cask aging--so you can pick bottles confidently and curate your collection.

The Bartender's Library is a comprehensive handbook and a tool for discovering what you like and how best to drink it, whether as a pour, a flight, or a cocktail. Included are:

Guides to curating and collecting individual spirits
Specific flights to help you explore categories and develop your palate
Recipes for cocktails, including the Whiskey Library's signature old fashioned
And much more.

Whether it's demystifying myths (older does not necessarily equal better) or helping you decipher industry lingo, Adams and Grier equip you to purchase with precision. With encyclopedic knowledge and surprising curatorial insights, this book is a chat with your favorite bartender, best enjoyed with a glass in hand.

UNIQUE EDUCATION: Unlike most cocktail books, this guide teaches you to buy, mix, and drink by spirit--including whiskey, rum, bourbon, vodka, and more. It also goes beyond the cocktail to help readers conceive of and collect spirits to be enjoyed as pours and flights.

MULTNOMAH WHISKEY LIBRARY: The Whiskey Library is an institution both in Portland, Oregon--where it is routinely named one of the city's top ten bars--and in the global spirits world. It partners with distilleries and producers around the world to create educational spirits programming.

CLASSIC GIFT-READY PACKAGE: With a molded spine, lush endpapers, and a flight tasting card tucked into a library card-style pocket, this makes an irresistible gift and a handsome addition to any bar cart or book library.

Perfect for:

Spirits enthusiasts and those who want to make careful choices when investing in bottles
Cocktail lovers and home mixologists
Someone looking to build a home bar and explore their own tastes
People new to or intimidated by bar culture
Gift-givers looking to pair a book with a bottle for birthday, holiday, housewarming, Father's Day, Mother's Day, or any special occasion
