Praise for American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye "A comprehensive and opinionated guide for the intermediate tippler . . . It's a detailed, admirably cranky directory. Risen's tasting notes for each are erudite and fun." -- Wall Street Journal "Risen is something of a Renaissance man . . . a Leonardo da Vinci of whiskey. American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye . . . should have a proud place on the bookshelf (or by the bar) of anyone who is an enthusiast of bourbon and other American whiskeys. Very useful for shopping purposes . . . Bring this book with you." -- Los Angeles Review of Books "Risen delicately walks readers into whiskey's past, present, and future. . . . His words are meant for whiskey lovers, as he dissects every brand's story and scores products on an NR (not recommended) to four-star scale. An American whiskey treasure worthy of four stars." -- Whiskey Advocate "A whiskey novice's best friend . . . It's a book I plan on keeping around for constant reference." -- Saveur, Praise for American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye "A whiskey novice's best friend, describing the characteristics of American whiskey, how to taste it, and how it is produced, as well as providing a detailed history of the spirit. The book also includes reviews and photos of more than 200 American whiskeys, their tasting notes, and information on the producers. . . . It's a book I plan on keeping around for constant reference." -- Saveur "Risen deftly combines history and assessment in this informative volume that covers more than 200 of the titular spirits. . . . This book will delight those interested in learning about the history, traditions, and comparative taste of whiskey, and the gorgeous images will conjure up memories of grandfather's old favorites. A fascinating read as well as a valuable reference guide, this work is sure to be a hit, especially in regions where the beverage is gaining popularity." -- Library Journal (starred review) "An accessible and useful reference . . . Risen offers takes on the excellent whiskies, and doesn't hold back while describing the bad . . . lending authority to his assessment of an overwhelming number of choices. The book will help whiskey lovers single out the good-to-great, but Risen also offer suggestions for lower tier whiskeys like Evan Williams that are perfectly fine for mixed drinks." -- Publishers Weekly, Praise for American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye "A comprehensive and opinionated guide for the intermediate tippler . . . It's a detailed, admirably cranky directory. Risen's tasting notes for each are erudite and fun." -- Wall Street Journal "Risen is something of a Renaissance man . . . a Leonardo da Vinci of whiskey. American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye . . . should have a proud place on the bookshelf (or by the bar) of anyone who is an enthusiast of bourbon and other American whiskeys.
