Gladfield Distillers malt is produced from exclusively 2-row Chronicle barley. Primarily suited to single malt distilling but also able to convert approximately 30% adjunct if required. Gladfield choose the barley based on nitrogen content and ripe, plump grains to balance both high extract and high diastatic power. The kilning cycle for distilling malt is gentler than their other base malts to preserve enzyme content. As with all Gladfield malts everything is 100% Canterbury grown and produced on site.

To create Gladfield’s Peat Smoked Malt, our wonderful Distillers Malt is smoked in our in-house smoker using 100% New Zealand peat. The resulting malt is infused with a traditional mild, soft earthy flavour with phenols 40+ppm. This malt is primarily suited for making single malt whisky but is also great when used to flavour Scotch ales or darker maltier beers.

Peated malt is used by some malt distillers to impart a smoked or peaty flavour to their spirit. This type of malt may also occasionally be used as a very small inclusion in brewers’ mashes to produce beer with a smoked character.
Peated malt is made using exactly the same production regime and barley as (plain) distilling malt during kilning. The peat smoke is absorbed onto the surface of the drying malt which, when processed, imparts the smoked peaty flavour to the finished product.
