Thanks to industry guru Jim Murray and his internationally acclaimed
annual Whiskey Bible, the Japanese are now running out of their own
single malt and people have fought in Toronto liquor stores to grab the
last bottle of his World Whisky of the Year. Rye, Irish Pot Still, and
Bourbon have all seen a massive resurgence in recent years not least
thanks to the visionary campaigning of the world's first-ever full time
professional whisky writer. Murray has tasted nearly 20,000 different
whiskies for the Whiskey Bible since it first hit the shelves in 2003.
For this 2021 edition, he reflects on over another 1,200. The 4,700
whiskies included in this 2021 edition range from Scottish Single malts
to Australian; from Canadian to Austrian. The whiskies from over 30
different countries are included and evaluated in his forthright,
honest, amusing, fiercely independent, and non-pretentious style.
