Today's global wine business is thriving, and American consumption of wine has increased dramatically in recent years, with the health benefits touted in the media. More Americans are becoming interested in learning about wine, and they are taking winery tours and attending wine tastings. The Business of Wine: An Encyclopedia is a necessary part of wine education for everyone from the curious consumer to the oenophile or business student and industry professional. It appeals to even the casual browser who wants to be more informed about wine terminology such as terroir and varietal labeling or what constitutes a Pinot Grigio or a Cabernet Sauvignon. More than 150 essay entries illuminate the regions, grapes, history, wine styles, business elements, events, people, companies, issues, and more that are crucial to today's complicated global wine industry. Today's wine industry is usually a complex network of interrelated businesses that collectively serve to produce wine and get it into the hands of consumers all over the world. This A-Z encyclopedia shows how production, distribution and sales segments work together to bring wine to the public and describes the trade in wine and its related subsidiary elements. Written by a host of wine professionals, this is the most up-to-date source to understand what goes into the enjoyment of a glass of wine. An appendix with industry data, sidebars, and a selected bibliography complement the A-Z entries value.

Review The Cocktail Shaker: The Tanqueray Guide / Philip Wilson Publishers:The cocktail shaker, once a symbol of elegance, is now eminently collectible. This reference, designed for collectors and admirers alike, celebrates a golden age when designers from the famous luxury goods houses had a ball with novelty cocktail shakers. "Thirst extinguishers", skyscrapers, lighthouses, penguins, ship's lanterns and dumb-bells, decorative and practical, were favourite themes, and with the legalisation of liquor in the USA, following the repeal of the Prohibition in 1933, cocktail sets were in great demand. Art-Deco-inspired shakers exemplified the age and found favour with the smart set in New York, Paris and elsewhere. This volume features over 150 photographs of shakers.

Review The Book of Coffee (Book Of...) / Flammarion:How many of us appreciate the extent to which coffee, first popularized during the fifteenth century, has changed the world?Coffee has circled the globe and is now consumed by billions of people who value it for the extraordinary benefits it bestows: its delicious flavors and frangrances, of course; plus its virtues as a physical and mental stimulant; and, above all, its admirable ability to inspire conviviality. From Asia to the Middle East, Europe, and the Americas, coffee warms the soul and brings people together. Discovered in a remote corner of Abyssinia, coffee has its roots in a land where genies appear from magic lamps, and where seers use it to foretell the future. No wonder coffee began its history surrounded by an aura of mystery and legend. The Book of Coffee tells of famous coffee-lovers-such as Bach who dedicated a cantata to his favorite beverage, and Pope Clement VIII who refused to ban the allegedly "diabolical" drink-and reveals through an astonishing and beautiful collectio of images the importance of coffee in society from the London coffee-houses of the sevententh century to the Prohibition years in the United States when coffee consumption reached record levels. Filled with advice on how to achieve the perfect cup of coffee, the book also includes a Guide to the best coffee purveyors and coffee shops throughout the world-making The Book of Coffee and indispensable gift for the true coffee-lover.

Review Evening Standard London Wine Guide 1996 / Trafalgar Square:Beginning with a round-up of the year, Andrew Jefford reveals the best places to buy wine in London, from wine merchants, through supermarkets and high street chains to mail order specialists and warehouses. With suggestions of recommended bottles, details of opening times, discounts, tastings and storage facilities, the mystery of wine is being removed. An exploration of the capital's wine bars makes up the next section of the guide, concentrating only on those places which stand out for quality of choice, amiability of surroundings and excellence of food. Information is given in order to make the reader's visit a pleasant one with wine recommendations, opening hours, number of wines available by the glass and half bottle, numbers of wines on the list and access by public transport. Finally, the author unveils the secrets of how to enjoy wine. With information on tasting, drinking, storing and even studying wine, he then goes on to look at the wines of the world: from such unknowns as Algeria and Slovakia, to the classics like France and Germany and newcomers like Chile and Australia. The book also discusses taste and style, the best vintage, whether a bottle can be stored or drunk straight away, what to avoid and what is recommended.
