I thought this would have more about the road trip aspect but I already liked whisky and enjoyed learning more about it. I can't wait to pick out the next couple of bottles!

Probably more of a 3.5, but very funny, and pretty informative. I've made quite a list now of various whiskies that I need to try.

This is a 3.5. I really enjoyed it, not just for its observations about whisky but about contemporary Scotland in general. I thought at times individual chapters seemed a little formless, but to be fair, the need for each chapter to say 'THIS is what I have learned' is entirely artificial. Anyway, I have already bought it for someone else for Christmas!
