Reviews
This isn't a well-traveled vinophile's braggy biography or a showboat boasting about his boozy knowledge. This is a genuine lover of travel and a good drink exploring the world through his palate." -- Glenn Dallas, SanFranciscoBookReview.com, Praise for The Year of Drinking Adventurously "This one's perfect if your New Year's resolution really was to drink better. It's a series of 52 essays that go on a tour of basically all parts of the beverage-alcohol world, from a Scotch guide in week 1 to an introduction to Cremant d'Alsace sparkling wine in week 52. It covers topics ranging from chile pepper-spiked beers to baijiu, China's favorite distilled spirit. The book concludes with a "Cocktailing Adventurously" section featuring recipes from bars around the world . . . "--Playboy Author Jeff Cioletti can recommend one that readers are very likely to stick with throughout 2017: Drink adventurously. In his book, The Year of Drinking Adventurously: 52 Ways to Get Out of Your Comfort Zone , Cioletti challenges adult imbibers to try something new every week for a year."--Liquor.com "Jeff Cioletti is like a deep sea diver plumbing to new depths of boozy culture. With an air tank full of wit, humor, and guile, he takes us to new worlds of drink culture rarely seen by the less courageous and casual imbiber. A reader's only regret is to not be there in person to pound down an enticing pint or mysterious cocktail along with Jeff in these exotic locales, though surely they will be left to dream their own next delicious drink adventure." -- Darek Bell , founder and owner, Corsair Distillery and author of Alt Whiskeys and Fire Water. "Jeff Cioletti is a master tour guide, whisking you through the rich tastes and fascinating stories of an astounding array of beverages. Your year of better drinking inevitably starts here." -- Erika Rietz , founder and editor-in-chief of Draft Magazine "Jeff Cioletti's The Year of Drinking Adventurously manages the near impossible; it is both comprehensive yet approachable, detailed yet entertaining. Cioletti has a real gift for finding narrative and making the material - which in the hands of lesser writers would turn into a plodding survey of obscure arcana - read like a page-turner." - Jeff Alworth , author of The Beer Bible and Cider Made Simple "A brilliantly original book that opens our eyes and challenges our palates to exciting new flavour experiences in what feels like a conversation with a buddy, written to entertain, inform and delight the curious imbiber." - Davin de Kergommeaux , author of Canadian Whisky: The Portable Expert. "This book is definitely worthwhile and often lots of fun to boot" - Drink Hacker "For an enthusiast of booze in oh so many forms and a lover of great stories, The Year of Drinking Adventurously made my mouth water and my brain buzz *(or head hum)?* with every turn of the page. Jeff's signature writing style shines through with passion, wit, and insight. With 52 weeks of adventure, let's get drinking!" -- Jeremy Cowan , founder and owner, Shmaltz Brewing Company "Clear some space in your liquor cabinet. Jeff Cioletti's book will ensure you'll have the best stocked bar in the neighborhood, and the knowledge necessary to put the bottles to proper use. A must-have for any drinks enthusiast." -- John Holl , editor of All About Beer Magazine, Praise for The Year of Drinking Adventurously "This one's perfect if your New Year's resolution really was to drink better.

Jeff''s sacrificed his liver to give the reader an excellent guide to making the most of one''s travels by discovering local drinks and drinking traditions." --Mark Gillespie, Host/Executive Producer, WhiskyCast "Jeff Cioletti is quickly becoming one of the most indispensable writers around. I don''t know how much time he spends on the road, but his mastery over the spirits of distant lands makes me wonder if he ever makes it home. THE DRINKABLE GLOBE is an absolute must for anyone serious about cocktails and the liquors they contain." --Jeff Alworth, Author, The Beer Bible Praise for THE YEAR OF DRINKING ADVENTUROUSLY "This one''s perfect if your New Year''s resolution really was to drink better.
