The Complete Whiskey Course: A Comprehensive Tasting School in Ten Classes - A Cocktail Book Hardcover – October 1, 2019

I purchased this book after meeting Mr. Robinson on a FB Live event in early June 2020. I am a Sensory Scientist by profession, so the taste/flavor of whiskey was of interest & initially drew me to the event, but I found him to be very knowledgeable and entertaining - and able to tell a story. I'm not knowledgeable about whiskey and his book doesn't disappoint! The amount of detailed information is amazing and the design of the book is just stunning - so many photographs (both current & historic), easy-to-read charts/graphs, labels, and clear & crisp words to tell great stories. I'd highly recommend this to the novice whiskey enthusiast.

... and you'll be an instant expert. This publication is an outstanding achievement for the whiskies world at large! Amazing quality inside an out. The binding and paper stock scream high-end, while the contents of the whiskies courses contained within seal the deal. But don't be scared, this is truly a book for all whiskies enthusiasts; new to the world, or a bit long in the tooth, there's something in there for everyone! Quite impressive in its breadth and depth of content, though not in the least unexpected from a man who has been living and breathing the whiskies world for so long. Make no mistake, this book will stand as the new defacto whiskies resource for ages to come!

I’m giving the book and author 5 stars. For this review I want to caution others on the packaging/shipping by I assume, Amazon. I ordered this book in new condition however when I opened the box, the binding had a significant tear in it. Disappointing for a new book at any price, but this one isn’t ‘cheap’. I recommend charging extra and bubble wrapping it.

This was a Christmas gift for my husband and he loved it - so did I. It is very informative and a good quality book. I would definitely recommend to any whiskey fan.

The book's content is wonderful. Very enjoyable. The binding on the book came broken. I am amazed by the amount of review images there are for this product and all of them show issues with the binding. Would expect the publisher/author to step up the game. Either way, content is great and the binding was glued back on.

So much better than I expected. This book is not only beautiful and very well made, it’s also a super great read! The format is wonderful. Great purchase!

Gave this to my son and he was sooo excited as he is a whisky afficianado. Nice book. Lots of interesting info.

Everyone from the novice whiskey fan to the long time aficionado should have this book in their collection! This is a superb guide, not just to one particular type of whiskey, but to the entire, diverse whiskey world, including its history, production, notes on nosing, tasting, deciphering labels, and more. I have more than a dozen whiskey books on my shelf, but now this is the one I find myself going back to, time and time again. If you’re going to own one whiskey book, this should be it!
