Heretic whiskey

The contours of Piattoforte: the necklace to map the world of food and wine and orient yourself in a more conscious way. Reflections, notes, voices out of the chorus that help the reader to approach critically and clearly to new trends in taste.

A book that talks about whiskey with a whole new verve. In the world of drinking well there are very specific rules that define how to approach, know, taste, taste, prepare, judge. In over 50 years of working as an '' orthodox '' breeder and refiner of whiskey and rum, Silvano Samaroli has reached such a level that his whiskey bottles are among the most valuable, expensive, drunk all over the world.

Today Samaroli, an eccentric, creative, ingenious man, takes stock of the situation, a profound reflection on his profession, putting his vision of whiskey black and white. And they are sparks from the title. Because Samaroli has such a '' whiskey '' knowledge that he no longer accepts the common orthodoxy that limits drinking to a mere set of gustatory-olfactory-visual data, but goes further and the challenge as a true heretic. The new title that enriches the I contour di Piattoforte series is a provocation to the '' classic '' and somewhat dusty methods, but also the outspoken and courageous tale - between philosophy and technique - of a man, a professional, a late drinker who was able to find the soul of whiskey and decided to reveal it to readers. To suggest them a new way of tasting, of perceiving new sensations and feeling pleasure.
