Pevec

Base Malts

Troubador Malting / United States

Description

Pevec is a Czech word for songbird, and this malt certainly does sing in a clear and bright voice with light honey and white grape flavors. This pilsner-style malt is lightly kilned, but unlike most traditional pilsner malts, we play with temperature and moisture content in order to engage maillard reactions and to deepen the fruited flavors of the malt. With the lower cure temperature, this will product a very pale liquor with a light dry mouthfeel.
