Welcome to Classic Expressions

 

AVAILABLE NOW!    The Manufacture of Whisky and Plain Spirit. (1913) The classic reference book by J A Nettleton, a late Victorian figure at least as important in his day as Alfred Barnard but today almost completely forgotten - except by real whisky aficionados. This complete edition of his life's work and accumulated knowledge is over 600 pages long and full of wonderful period technical detail so a major and important reprint.  If you want to understand distilling prior to WW1 this is THE reference source.  Rare.

Cloth edition in slip case, edition of 300 copies only....price £99 plus shipping (total = £109 UK;       £120 EU and £130 RoW)

FULL leather edition, hand-bound, marbled end-papers, protective case, customised for owner etc, edition of 25 copies only...price £425 inc. worldwide shipping.

This isn't in our shopping basket system yet, so for this title only, here's what you need to do:

There are three ways you can pay.

1.   Send a cheque payable in UK Pounds sterling and made out to “Distilled Discourse Ltd” to Distilled Discourse Ltd, Distillery House, Tomdachoille, by Pitlochry, Perthshire PH16 5NA, with a note of your name and address.   The cheque or bank draft must be payable in UK currency please.
2.    Go to www.paypal.co.uk and send the appropriate amount to our account which is info@classicexpressions.co.uk   You do not need a Paypal account of your own; you simply follow the instructions on screen (look for the ‘send money’ tab on the tool bar) and use your own credit card.  This is safe and reliable.  We then get an email from Paypal and send you your book.  Again, please ensure the payment is in UK currency – the instructions tell you how to do this.
3.   Send an electronic bank transfer. For obvious reasons, we don't show our bank account details here.  If you want to use this payment method please email info@classicexpressions.co.uk  

For all other titles, please go to the "Books For Sale" tab on the toolbar (down left hand side); use the shopping basket and pay on line. Thanks!
