Description
Teaninich Mash Filter Draff is nutritionally similar to Distillers Draff. However, they differ substantially in appearance since the malted barley used is ground rather than left whole prior to the distilling process. This grinding facilitates the extraction of more liquor (‘wort’). The resulting Mash Filter Grains, however, are therefore higher in dry matter, giving excellent value for money.
