The distillery uses traditional copper pot stills, which
produce a heavier liquor. The inner wall of the copper jug will chemically react with the original
whisky to produce esterified substances that further help the wine to form a rich fruity aroma, and
conduct secondary distillation, which not only enriches the taste of the original wine, but also retains
more of the various substances produced during the fermentation process. flavor.
The first time was carried out in a large pot still.
After preheating, the original wine was introduced into a heating furnace and heated to boiling. Because
the boiling point of alcohol is lower than that of water, the alcohol will first evaporate into steam
and evaporate at the top of the heating furnace. The swan neck is re-condensed into an alcoholic liquid,
and after condensation, a low-alcohol wine is obtained, with an alcohol content between 10% and 20%.
The second distillation is carried out in a smaller pot
still, which is also called a spirit still. After this distillation, the liquor becomes the prototype of
pure malt whisky. The alcohol content is in around 70%. Of course, these liquors cannot be called whisky
yet, because the original liquor after distillation must be aged for at least 3 years.
