| Summary: | "12 years ago, we invested in a future spirit. Here's how we described it in a prospectus at the time: 'The production of BLACK WHISKY is a joint undertaking by Dexter Sinister, publishers (New York, USA) and Stählemühle, distillers (Eigeltingen-Münchhof, Germany). Distillation is due to take place in the summer of 2010, towards the production of a batch-distilled, single Bavarian malt, non-blended whisky, using pure water from the Black Forest, which will mature for 12 years in a used Bourbon barrel imported from the USA, to be bottled and distributed sometime after 2021.' Meanwhile, inevitably, things have changed. Dexter Sinister no longer runs a basement bookstore, and now operates (mostly) remotely from New York and Scotland. After a too-successful run, Stählemühle has stopped distilling spirits. And the name "Black Whisky," chosen through a chain of obscure reasoning in 2010, has shifted its register 12 years later on. And yet, now, the whisky is ready. This book recounts what happened during those 12 years, backwards"--Back cover sticker. |
