Whisky Reading For The Holidays

This holiday season, surprise your spirits loving family and friends with the incredible un-told stories of the exciting and cutting-edge distilleries that are re-shaping Canada’s spirits industry. The Definitive Guide to Canadian Distilleries is a beautiful, thoroughly researched and thoughtfully presented homage to the hard-working people who have infused new life into Canada’s whisky and spirits movement.

Join authors Davin de Kergommeaux and Blair Phillips in discovering more than 200 Canadian distilleries, nearly 100 of them making whisky. You and your whisky loving friends will soon be making plans to visit – or armchair visit – all of them. Maps, tips and suggestions of where to go next are just the start of this comprehensive, tasting, travel and cocktail guide.

The Definitive Guide to Canadian Distilleries pairs well with de Kergommeaux’s earlier book Canadian Whisky: The New Portable Expert. Here he digs deep into the stories and histories of Canada’s top whisky makers, their people, products and distilleries. This highly popular whisky book is now in its second edition and ready for gift-giving or gift-getting.

As New York Times journalist and bestselling whisky author, Clay Risen puts it, “To call Davin de Kergommeaux the soul of Canadian whisky is an understatement—he is its guide, its historian, and its leading advocate. Now comes The Definitive Guide to Canadian Distilleries, with Blair Phillips, as astounding in its breadth of coverage as its depth of insight. Make room in your library, spirits fans: these are must-own books.”

Make your whisky lover’s day with one or both of these carefully researched and beautiful books. Available in major and most independent bookstores, and all online booksellers.
