The Whiskies of Scotland (first published in 1967) reads like it was written by a Whisky YouTuber ... from 57 Years Ago. The book shows us just how few were marketing single malts at the time, and tells us: what is the biggest difference in whisky production (hint: it has to do with so many unexpected peated whiskies ... like Glenfiddich!)? What does the author think of Springbank? Of Macallan? Laphroaig? What casks are most commonly used? What are the only 2 Islay single malts on the market? What Highland whisky does the author compare to the bold whiskies of Islay?

The book includes opinions on age statements, abv, and transparency, so it was definitely written by someone who would fit right in with today's whisky YouTubers. Join me on my journey back to 1967, as I go over the big differences and similarities the book illustrates, share the opinions on specific whiskies I found most remarkable, and discuss the author's warning, from 57 years ago, about the responsibilities inherent in preserving and protecting scotch whisky that sounds like it could have been written today ...
