or your best friend

I have travelled the world looking for the most characterful beers, whiskies and spirits, investigated the ways in which they are made and served, photographed them, and tried to describe the pleasures they offer. It has been my life’s work. I would like to think that the resultant books are useful as well as being beautiful. Any of them can be ordered through the links provided here.
