Stefaan Van Laare
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stefaan Van Laere is a Belgian writer who writes and publishes in Dutch. He is the author of several books for children and adults, both fiction and non fiction. He wrote a tango book with tango teacher Pol Van Assche of Polariteit, two children's books (De Koffer and Sciencefiction), three thrillers, several restaurant guides and three books about whisky. He is also chief editor of the Belgian Horeca Magazine (edition in Dutch and French).
Van Laere is fascinated by single malt whisky. His third whisky book Whisky à la carte, written with connaisseur Bob Minnekeer from the famous Belgian whiskyclub Glengarry, is his first book translated in French (photographs Johan Martens, editor Lannoo). In this book the authors explain the history and production process of whisky, and how to taste it, and give some interesting whisky trails in Scotland.
