2019ill., ril. "Chi dice di non amare il whisky semplicemente non ha ancora scoperto quello che gli va a genio". Queste le parole di Georges, il fantomatico nonno dell'autore, Mickaël Guidot, che ha fatto nascere la sua passione per il whisky e che l'ha ispirato nella realizzazione del blog ForGeorges, a lui intitolato. Ed è proprio questo che il libro intende dimostrare, mettendo a tacere i luoghi comuni che circolano intorno al prezioso distillato e svelandone i segreti con uno stile ironico e grazie a un nutrito apparato di illustrazioni. Dalle tecniche di distilleria alla degustazione, dai consigli per l'acquisto agli abbinamenti, senza tralasciare le ricette per i cocktail e un piccolo tour del mondo a base di whisky: ecco tutto quello che vi serve sapere per diventare "veri intenditori".
