description: One of the first single-volume guides to Irish whiskey, this book examines the misty origins of the popular drink before it earned its place as a world-renowned spirit. It is the story of an illicit industry that rose from 19th-century impoverished Ireland and of the skilled and dedicated people who refined the drink. This in-depth guide looks at the processes used to distill Irish whiskey both in the past and today and follows the liquor's spread from Europe to America. Included is information on the distilleries in Ireland and the more than two-centuries-old Dublin distilling tradition.
