The Best Whiskey in the World
I
n 1976, a wine tasting took place in Paris that shook the wine world, and the French in particular. On that occasion, Napa Valley wines (both red and white) outscored their more prestigious French counterparts, and California wines attained new world status. More recently, much the same type of seismic shift in perception occurred in the world of whiskey as a Japanese whiskey was named “the best in the world.” Yamazaki Single Malt Sherry Cask 2013 was named best by whiskey connoisseur Jim Murray in his 2015 edition of the Whisky Bible. Needless to say, this came as a shock to Scottish distillers, none of whose products placed in the top five for the first time.
