"My Journey into American Whiskey" by Poppy Bruce Potash is a fun and informative book that takes readers through the history and culture of American whiskey. The author's approachable and friendly writing style makes the book an inviting and enjoyable read. Poppy Bruce has written about American history and how it helped shape whiskey’s past, present, and future. He delves into the reciprocal of that same history that most people don’t know, “that whiskey helped mold America as well.� Poppy’s journey into this industry is a philosophical exploration into not only the art of making whiskey; but into the passionate people that follow whiskey and the friendships that whiskey binds together.
But what truly makes this book different is his ability to weave the story of the meandering world of whiskey into a simple and accessible read for all. Each chapter is like a different quilt square, telling the tales of America and Poppy Bruce’s life, all stitched up by his love of whiskey. Poppy writes in a way that is unlike a lesson being taught, but like he’s telling you a story he heard about while sitting around a fire pit with a glass of Bourbon.
"The Posse’s First Tasting Disaster"
Poppy’s debut whiskey tasting with his rowdy friends the Posse descended into chaos: "It’s like herding 3rd graders when the pet rabbit escapes." Laughter, cross-talk, and a video he’ll never delete prove that whiskey tastes better with friends even if they’re your worst critics.
Poppy Bruce dives into the deep history of distilleries that have stood the test of time and some that faded into oblivion. He honors the craftsmen who sharpened their skills making some of the finest distilled whiskeys this country has to offer.
