A Whiskey & Its Grains

Come join us for an in-depth class that examines how each individual grain can greatly affect the spirit that comes off the still. We will examine corn, rye, wheat, and malted barley—the four grains that make up 99% of whiskies—and how each grain adds its own specific flavors and aromas to whiskey. Learn the nuances of each grain and how it will impact the final product. We will also cover the fast-growing trend of using alternative grains and how those will change the whiskies that we know and love. Instruction includes a thorough analysis of each individual grain distillate, as well as the production process of milling, cooking, fermentation, and distillation.
