A New York Times Bestseller
Sake began with a grain of rice. Scotch emerged from barley, tequila from agave, rum from sugarcane, bourbon from corn. Thirsty yet? In The Drunken Botanist, Amy Stewart explores the dizzying array of herbs, flowers, trees, fruits, and fungi that humans have, through ingenuity, inspiration, and sheer desperation, contrived to transform into alcohol over the centuries.
Of all the extraordinary and obscure plants that have been fermented and distilled, a few are dangerous, some are downright bizarre, and one is as ancient as dinosaurs--but each represents a unique cultural contribution to our global drinking traditions and our history.
This fascinating concoction of biology, chemistry, history, etymology, and mixology--with more than fifty drink recipes and growing tips for gardeners--will make you the most popular guest at any cocktail party.
Amy Stewart is the award-winning author of six books on the perils and pleasures of the natural world, including four New York Times bestsellers, The Drunken Botanist, Wicked Bugs, Wicked Plants, and Flower Confidential. She lives in Eureka, California, where she and her husband own an antiquarian bookstore called Eureka Books and tend a flock of unruly hens in their backyard. She has spent the last few years on arduous research trips through the world's distilleries, wineries, and bars for her latest book, The Drunken Botanist.
She has written for the New York Times, the Washington Post, and many other newspapers and magazines, and has appeared frequently on National Public Radio, CBS Sunday Morning, and--just once--on TLC's Cake Boss. She is the recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship, the American Horticulture Society's Book Award, and a California Horticultural Society Writer's Award.
关于我最怕的牙科的味道,书中写道: as a dental anesthetic because of its numbing and anesthetic effects. Distinctive dentist office smell comes from cloves.
评分信息量十足的博物志。从酿酒的基础原料、增添风味的香料以及点缀辅料三个方面介绍了涉及谷物、草木、花果等百种植物的特点、趣闻以及历史。即使存在晦涩的生化类专有名词,也无法削减阅读/摘记此书的热情。推荐阅读原版:一来英文名词对将来的实践更为实用;二来对比译制版本,原版的排版也更为美观。
评分了解下酿酒的过程还不错 也算植物酿酒百科全书 但这本书面向的是对植物或者酒非常感兴趣的读者 我兴趣没那么大所以读到后面就不行了
评分很有意思的一本书,学到了好多奇奇怪怪的知识。 比如因为基因型的差异,有人会觉得茉莉花有蜂蜜的香味,而有人会联想到尿味;还有牙科诊所的味道来源于丁香提取物(用于麻醉);香草为什么贵,结个豆荚太不容易了,每天只开一朵花,只有一种蜂才能授粉,豆荚发育需要6-8个月,还只有一种真菌才能让种子发芽;为什么叫五月酒,五月以前香猪秧秧里的香豆素积累尚不够高,毒性不强所以可以加到酒里;关于金鸡纳树的小故事也很有趣;Raki竟然可以用无花果酿造……红色白金花的配图是错误的

评分拿起《醉酒的植物学家》,就像拿起一本厚厚的博物志,全书一共收录了160种植物,描绘了它们从打浆桶、蒸馏器、酒瓶直到玻璃杯的旅程。这是一个相当宏大的主题,自然界中能用来酿酒的植物何止千万,作者艾米·斯图尔特站在植物学的角度,抽丝剥茧地分析一款款酒的历史渊源、植物...
