Clay Risen presents American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye: A Guide to the Nation’s Favorite Spirit
Discussion and whiskey tasting
The number of commercially available American whiskeys has grown exponentially over the past 20 years, as has whiskey’s popularity. But while there are many whiskeys, bourbons, and ryes made in the United States, choosing among them has not always be easy—until now. Discerning drinkers will savor American Whiskey, Bourbon & Rye, the only guide devoted exclusively to these spirits currently available, written by New York Times editor (and Fort Greene neighbor) Clay Risen. Clay is also the author of A Nation on Fire: America in the Wake of the King Assassination, and has written about beer and spirits for The New York Times, the Atlantic website, and Men's Journal. Join Greenlight at Greene Grape Wine & Spirits for a talk, book signing and guided tasting of the best of American whiskeys hosted by Clay!
