Dave Broom takes readers on an evocative journey exploring how landscape shapes identity, culture, and the spirits we create from the land. Drawing connections between geography, geology, and the distinctive character of place, this exploration reveals how terroir influences everything from whisky to wine, and how the environments we inhabit leave their mark on what we produce and who we become.
Part travel writing, part cultural meditation, the book weaves together vivid descriptions of landscapes with insights into how communities forge deep connections with their surroundings. Broom's passionate examination of place offers a fresh perspective on why certain locations produce such singular expressions of craft, and why understanding the land beneath our feet enriches our appreciation of both nature and tradition.
