Episode 46: June 28, 2006

Time for a chapter from the WhiskyCast Book Club…back in 1930, a Scotsman going by the name of Aeneas MacDonald wrote the first book on whisky aimed at whisky drinkers. “Whisky” was a groundbreaking book for its time, and many of MacDonald’s comments are still true today. Now, Ian Buxton has solved the mystery of Aeneas MacDonald, and Canongate Books has released a new edition of “Whisky” for a new generation of whisky lovers. Ian gives us the details, along with readings from the book on this episode of WhiskyCast!
