Malt profiles

Malt profiles refer to the specific characteristics of malted grains used in brewing and distilling, which significantly influence the flavor, color, and aroma of the final product. Different types of malts, which are made from barley or other grains that have been soaked, germinated, and dried, offer unique tastes—ranging from sweet and rich to nutty or even roasty. The choice of malt affects not only the beverage's taste but also its texture and overall experience, making malt profiles essential to understanding the complexities of various beers and spirits.
