Dave has visited Japan 30 times in the past 16 years, studying, learning and embracing its whiskies. In this major new book, he shares his personal journey around Japan’s whisky distilleries to discover what makes Japanese whisky Japanese and how it links to the country’s culture. Each distillery is given a detailed portrait, detailing its history, production and current whiskies, as well as Dave’s tasting notes. Dave also considers along the way how Japanese whisky links to seasonality, nature, balances tradition with innovation, and the deep links which exists between it and traditional Japanese craftsmanship. All illuminated by Take’s breathtaking photographs.
