The Seven Moods of Craft Spirits

Now is the most exciting time for craft spirits. Craft distilling is riding a perfect wave: gin has become particularly popular in London, tequila is back in fashion, Cuban rum is making a resurgence, and great whiskies are being created everywhere. Brought together in one accessible guide, here are 350 of the world's most interesting and innovative spirits. Each entry includes a specially commissioned drawing, tasting description, strength, distillery information and spirit type. Each chapter is devoted to seven different moods - Social, Adventurous, Poetic, Bucolic, Contemplative, Gastronomic, Imaginative - and alongside the entries there are numerous features on related subjects, including gin and whisky distilleries, spirit bars, whisky festivals, craft distillers, and mixing spirits and food. The second in the 'Seven Moods' series, this little guide will become the pocket bible to craft spirits for years to come.
