When it comes to whiskey, tannins are more than just a buzzword; they're the unsung heroes that add complexity and character to your favorite spirit. Acorns, of course, come from oak trees, and oak, in barrel form, is where tannins come into play with whiskey. One characteristic they contribute is obvious: a certain astringency that can make your mouth pucker, but in the right measure, it's the secret handshake of quality bourbons.

This question is on the lips of many whiskey aficionados. After steeping the grain, the floor malting process requires the wet grain to be spread on a smooth concrete floor to germinate. It's a dance of nature and nurture, and the perfect gift for the curious connoisseur is our 'Grain to Glass' guidebook, highlighting the nuances of this age-old technique.
For those who revel in the hands-on experience, consider gifting a whiskey tasting flight mat. It's not just a piece of fabric; it's a canvas for exploration, allowing the whiskey wanderer to chart their sensory journey across the malting plains. Pair it with a selection of barrel-aged wonders, from a robust Porter to a Belgian-style Dark Strong Ale, and you've got a gift that's both thoughtful and thirst-quenching.
When it comes to whiskey, the devil is in the details. And sometimes, those details begin with a handful of malted barley on a cool, stone floor.
