A Sense of Place | Dave Broom | Whisky and terroir

A Sense of Place by Dave Broom is an atmospheric and thoughtful whisky book about the connection between Scotch whisky and the place where it is made. Rather than treating whisky only as technique or flavour profile, Broom explores how land, weather, history, craft and culture all contribute to the character of Scotch.

Travelling through Scotland, Broom visits distilleries from Islay and Harris to Orkney and Speyside. He looks not only at what happens inside the distillery, but also at the world around it: landscape, climate, community, tradition and local identity.

The book shows that whisky is more than grain, yeast, water and wood. Every dram carries traces of place, people and time. In that sense, A Sense of Place connects the idea of terroir with the world of Scotch whisky in a vivid and accessible way.

Specially commissioned photography by Christina Kernohan gives the book a strong visual identity. Landscapes, distilleries, people and details bring the journey to life, making the book both a rewarding read and a stylish gift for whisky lovers.

A Sense of Place is ideal for readers who want to look beyond tasting notes and bottles. A rich book for lovers of Scotland, Scotch whisky, distillery stories, whisky photography and the question of why origin matters.
