Malt Spirits

Malt spirits, distilled from malted barley, are the essential building blocks of single malt and blended malt whiskies. These unaged or partially aged spirits provide a preview of the flavours that will emerge as they mature, showcasing the grain's unadulterated character. Malt spirits, which are frequently double-distilled in copper pot stills, have a strong and full character with subtle notes of fresh fruit, cereal sweetness, and delicate flowers. Although malt spirits are mostly used as a prelude to whisky, some distilleries bottle them to showcase the skill and potential of their distillates, giving whisky connoisseurs an interesting experience.
