Distillation

© 2000, Early Times

The fermented grain mash, which is now called a "beer" is then distilled to remove the whisky from the "beer". All distillers use a live steam column still. Here the "beer" is exposed to steam and the whisky is vaporized and sent to a Thumper and then to a condenser. The condensed vapor is a new whisky which has undergone one distillation. This new whisky is then pumped to the cistern room where it is reduced to a designated proof and prepared for barreling.
