Glyph: the first molecular whiskey, made without distillation or barrel aging. Say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa *takes a deep breath* aaaaaaaaaaat?! No barrel aging? No distillation? Blasphemy! Heresy! Or… utterly brilliant…? A very small release that you won’t find anywhere outside of the USA, apart from here, at Musthave Malts.
Here’s how they made Glyph
“Whiskeys owe their flavor, aroma, and mouthfeel to hundreds, sometimes thousands, of molecules that develop during distillation and barrel aging. These are the building blocks of all spirits. To make Glyph, we source these molecules directly from plants and yeasts, rather than obtaining them through distilling and aging. By using the same building blocks as conventional distillers, we create fine spirits through a process we’ve developed called note-by-note production. Our process is different, but our commitment to quality rivals the best in the business. Each component is meticulously tested for purity. Glyph is biochemically equivalent to the finest aged whiskies.”
The result
Subtle aromas of vanilla, roasted hazelnuts, and hints of caramel and honey. Its medium-bodied palate exposes a wide spectrum of wood and spice, followed by undertones of black fruit. Ends with a firm, earthy finish.
