Using Specialty Malts to Build Character in Spirits Distillers can tap into the same kinds of flavorful malts that brewers commonly use to build additional flavor and complexity into their whiskeys.

In my first piece for Craft Spirits & Distilling, I nerd out on how #brewing #malts can be used to add depth and character to #whiskey ๐Ÿฅƒ

So.... #Tunisia makes #wine, and it even has an appellation system. Who knew?

The country's production is mostly focused on red, but this Chardonnay/Vermentino blend looked interesting, so I grabbed a bottle
