Single Malt Whisky-Dial-A Drink Kenya

Single Malt Whisky-Dial-A Drink Kenya

Single malt scotch is defined as whisky that is made in Scotland at one distillery from a mash bill of 100 percent malted barley. It must be aged for a minimum of three years in oak barrels.

How it is made

Barley grains are melted(germinated) and dried to stop the process-sometimes using peat as heat source to infuse the grain with smoky flavor. The barley is then milled and combined with water and cooked to release the sugars. The yeast is then added to liquid, now called wash, and it is put into large vessels to ferment. Next the wash is distilled in pot stills at least twice, which heats the alcohol an turns into vapor. This vapor is captured and cooled so it returns to a liquid form with an increasingly higher ABV. Finally, the new make spirit is put into oak barrels and stored in warehouses for a minimum of three years, but usually much longer than that.

The whisky is then cut with water before bottling. Sometimes caramel color is added to maintain consistency.

How and best way to serve a single-malt whisky

This type of whisky is best served neat, perhaps with a few drops of water to open up the palate. After that, go ahead and ice if you like, or even use it in a cocktail if you wish
