Each destination section (think Suntory's Yamazaki Distillery in Japan, above, or Iron Balls Distillery in Bangkok) also contains recommendations for top sights and experiences, as well as a special section showcasing the world’s best cocktails.
Within each of the 33 countries featured in the book, distilleries are organised alphabetically by region.
Also included in the distillery entries are a small number of bars that are best-in-class for their selection of one particular drink, such as arak in Lebanon or tuak in Malaysia, and for which distilleries are hard to find.
Lonely Planet’s Global Distillery Tour costs $29.99.
