{"product_id":"whiskey-business-tom-acitelli-9781613734582","title":"Whiskey Business: How Small-Batch Distillers Are Transforming American Spirits","description":"Discover the underdog story of the improbable rise of small-batch distilling in America. This bracingly written, fast-paced work traces the relationship of Americans to spirits such as bourbon, scotch, vodka, gin, and rum. And it presents the full story of a plucky band of entrepreneurs who disrupted the nation's conception of how those libations could appear and taste--and how much they could cost. Acitelli weaves the unlikely triumph of the small-batch distilling movement into other major trends, including a neo-Prohibitionism that nearly croaked the entire thing, America's re-embrace of cocktails, and the twin rises of craft beer and fine wine. He also expertly delves into the controversies currently wracking American spirits, ones that threaten to tank the movement at the moment of what should be its greatest triumph.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tom Acitelli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1613734581\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781613734582\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chicago Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2017 pg. 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2017 pg. 45","brand":"Tom Acitelli","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45481976234239,"sku":"9781613734582","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c8e54990-fcf8-4e69-9db3-b0045d8d7bc3.jpg?v=1715988221","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/whiskey-business-tom-acitelli-9781613734582","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
