How to Drink Benriach with Charlotte Coyle

Our guest today introduced me to a job title I had never heard of before - the maltster. She works for one of the very few distilleries that still floor malts its barley - thus the need for a maltster.In short, a maltster is a maker of malt for use in brewing or distilling, but Charlotte Coyle goes into way more detail about the maltster at Benriach Distillery. Charlotte is the Brown-Forman UK Malt Whisky Ambassador and sat down to tell me all about the history and the Scotch Whisky that is made up in the Speyside distillery of Benriach, plus what goes on in Warehouse 13.But before we explore maltsters, you can now watch this episode plus all the other Lush Life episodes as well as a whole lot more on Youtube, so check out the Lush Life Youtube Channel!!
