CHÂTEAU Distilling Malt

Features
Two row spring malting barley is selected for the production of our Château Distilling malt. Barley is steeped
to 44 – 46% moisture, slightly higher than normally required for Pilsen lager style malts. Germination
temperatures are controlled between 12°C – 16°C for a period of five days. Kiln cycles start at 50° – 60°C
rising to 70° – 75°C.
Characteristics
This is a premium Distilling malt produced especially for the distilling industry. It is used for the production of
quality grain whisky. Château Distilling malt promotes high fermentability, adequate enzyme potential and
soluble nitrogen (protein) levels. Our Château Distilling malt is gently kilned to preserve enzymes and
maximise fermentability.
Usage
Any type of whisky, real Scotch whisky. Up to 100% of the mix.
Storage and Shelf life
Malt should be stored in a clean, cool (< 22 °C), dry (< 35 RH %) and pest free environment. If these
conditions are observed, we recommend using all whole kernel products within 24 months from the date of
manufacture and all milled products within 3 months. Improperly stored malts can lose freshness and flavor.
