I don’t only drink spirits – whiskey, beer, cider, tequila, mezcal, poitin, rum & a touch of grappa being my favourites – I also read about them.
Below is a list of books I’ve read along the way.
Some have contributed to my blog – and can be accessed by pressing the links – others have just been fun.
