Review

"A concise, yet thorough summary of bourbon facts and history. Bourbon: What the Educated Drinker Should Know would certainly be the recommended text for Bourbon 101."

"Bourbon drinkers could not ask for a better guide to the history and science behind their favorite dram. Tim Berra's experience as a college professor serves him - and us - well. Clearly, intelligently explained, 'Bourbon' is a great introduction to the category."

-Clay Risen, author, American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye: A Guide to the Nation's Favorite Spirit and Single Malt: A Guide to the Whiskies of Scotland
