Malt Beverage. Have you taste it?
Good afternoon again everyone! Today Venerable Capital, expert in exporting and marketing of tobacco and beverages, brings a new blog entry. In this case, we will talk about one of the more unknown drinks in our catalogue. It is known as malt beverage.
The malt beverage is a non-alcoholic drink made with roasted barley. It is a product which is considered by many people as a good coffee substitute. However, it is characterised by its lack of caffeine. Its flavour is much milder than that of traditional coffee. It is also a drink known for its multiple nutritional benefits.
The malt beverage can be enjoyed hot or cold and is an excellent choice to accompany a meal or simply to enjoy as a refreshing and delicious drink at any time of the day.
How is the malt beverage made?
Malt beverage is brewed similarly to beer, but instead of being fermented to produce alcohol, the fermentation process is stopped at an early stage to retain the natural sugars in the malt. Natural flavorings such as vanilla, cinnamon or cloves are often added to give it a unique and distinctive flavor.
As mentioned above, this beverage is made from dried and roasted barley. Normally, the malt drying process is carried out in two shifts. During the first, the malt is dried at a temperature of about 30ºC for one day. In the second roasting and kilning, it is kilned at 45° for about 12 hours. Depending on the intensity of the flavor that we want to obtain, we will carry out a more or less strong roasting.
Normally, malt is characterized by a sweet flavor, a caramel smell and a perfect texture for serving cold. There are malts of categories with much darker appearances due to their more intense roasting.
