Malt is made from barley containing starch that becomes alcohol. malt factory is the first step in turning barley into whiskey. The cooled wort is then introduced into containers, called backwashing which are usually made of larch, pine or stainless steel, then yeast fermentation is added.

Finally, whiskey is kept for at least three years in oak casks in Scotland, in order to ensure good maturation.
