The team responsible for creating New York City's first whiskey distillery since Prohibition has this time collaborated on a beautifully presented illustrated book filled with whiskey history, practical information on home distilling, step by step instructions, and an introduction to the current movement toward craft spirits and micro-distilling. Published by Abrams Books, the work is "by turns a meditation on whiskey and the interlocking threads of American independence, an exploration of our divided national character vis-à-vis spirits, and a guide to the science behind the act of creating your own moonshine."
"Of all the spirits, it is the most challenging and rewarding to make, as well as the most personal. There is a reason why so many bourbons are named after people, and so few other spirits are."
- From Chapter One, “What Is Whiskey?”
