WHISKEY - Scotch

SCOTCH:

Made from malted barley. Distilled and aged 2 years. 1) Malting: Barley is soaked & oxygen is pumped in, and this process repeats for 12 hours, 2) Barley dries on malting floors & the starches in the barley turned into fermentable sugars that will turn to alcohol, 3) Kilning: Barley cooked over coal or peat in copper pots. This is where Scotch gets its smoky taste.
