Recommended by Bill

Bill is one of the founders of Boffins and has been involved in selecting the books we stock since our beginning in 1989. His favourite reading is history, with psychology, current affairs, and business books coming close behind. His hobbies are reading, food, reading, drinking, reading, and sleeping.

If you like a dram of the holy water, you’ll love this book. Rachel says that whisky in Scotland is like heat in Australia – it’s everywhere. She’s obviously never been for a swim in Esperance, but we’ll give her a bit of licence. She also says that whisky is to Scotland like food is to the Mediterranean – which has really made me think about the Mediterranean diet, and how I might tweak it. This is a real romp through the world of Scotch whisky, its history and its myths. Rachel travelled the length and breadth of Scotland visiting the ubiquitous distilleries to find out how all the different whiskies are made, drunk, and even cooked with. Highly recommended, a book as full of spirit as the drink itself, you’ll laugh  and learn together.
