"This copy was previously owned by Jeremiah Tower and purchased from

at a hefty price. High enough that as I walked home, my bank called me to make sure there wasn’t any fraud and my credit rating took a dip a couple of days later."

and their book Spirits Distilled - plus 3 uncommon new whiskies to taste! I can’t remember the last time I got tongue-tied because I thought the author was cute, but it was bound to happen sometime.
