Description
The Language of Whisky by David McNicoll is an exploration of how whisky became a global phenomenon. From its humble origins as an agricultural by-product in Scotland, to its current status as a billion-dollar industry, this book delves into the history and cultural significance of whisky. Whisky's names are often rooted in Scottish farm names, reflecting the various languages historically spoken across the country. This book strips away expert-speak to reveal the social history behind these names, offering a glimpse into the world of Scotland's ancestors. With its accessible approach, The Language of Whisky invites readers to see whisky through new eyes. David McNicoll brings his expertise as a whisky specialist and historian to this engaging narrative, making it an ideal choice for anyone interested in the subject.
