  • The Whiskey Machine: Nanofactory-Based Replication of Fine Spirits and Other Alcohol-Based Beverages
    The Whiskey Machine: Nanofactory-Based Replication of Fine Spirits and Other Alcohol-Based Beverages © 2016 Robert A. Freitas Jr. All Rights Reserved. Abstract. Specialized nanofactories will be able to manufacture specific products or classes of products very efficiently and inexpensively. This paper is the first serious scaling study of a nanofactory designed for the manufacture of a specific food product, in this case high-value-per- liter alcoholic beverages. The analysis indicates that a 6-kg desktop appliance called the Fine Spirits Synthesizer, aka. the “Whiskey Machine,” consuming 300 W of power for all atomically precise mechanosynthesis operations, along with a commercially available 59-kg 900 W cryogenic refrigerator, could produce one 750 ml bottle per hour of any fine spirit beverage for which the molecular recipe is precisely known at a manufacturing cost of about $0.36 per bottle, assuming no reduction in the current $0.07/kWh cost for industrial electricity. The appliance’s carbon footprint is a minuscule 0.3 gm CO2 emitted per bottle, more than 1000 times smaller than the 460 gm CO2 per bottle carbon footprint of conventional distillery operations today. The same desktop appliance can intake a tiny physical sample of any fine spirit beverage and produce a complete molecular recipe for that product in ~17 minutes of run time, consuming <25 W of power, at negligible additional cost.

  • The Balvenie Single Malt Scotch Whisky
    The Balvenie Single Malt Scotch Whisky The Balvenie is a unique range of single malts created by David Stewart, The Balvenie Malt Master and longest-serving Malt Master in the industry. Each has a very individual taste, but each is rich, luxuriously smooth and underpinned by the distinctively honeyed character of The Balvenie. Produced in Speyside in the Scottish Highlands, the exceptional quality of The Balvenie Single Malt is due to the fact that The Balvenie Distillery retains and nurtures a high level of craftsmanship that other malt whisky producers no longer employ: nowhere else will you find a distillery that still grows its own barley, still malts in its own traditional floor maltings, still employs coopers to tend all the casks and a coppersmith to maintain the stills. Today the Balvenie Distillery produces a multi award-winning range of The Balvenie Single Malts, which includes The Balvenie DoubleWood 12 Year Old, The Balvenie Signature 12 Year Old, The Balvenie Single Barrel 15 Year Old, The Balvenie PortWood 21 Year Old and The Balvenie Thirty. A limited edition and a rare vintage cask over 30 years old are also bottled each year. Our Award Winning Single Malt The Balvenie Malt Master, David Stewart, and his team of craftsmen are thrilled that their time honoured skills have been so highly rewarded. With over one hundred whisky awards in the last ten years, the world’s most acclaimed experts have recognised The Balvenie’s unique quality and range of tastes and the commitment to traditional malt whisky making, which sets us apart from other single malts.

  • History of Scotch Whiskey
    Scotch Whiskey The Gaelic "usquebaugh", meaning "Water of Life", phonetically became "usky" and then "whisky" in English. However it is known, Scotch whisky, Scotch or Whisky (as opposed to whiskey), it has captivated a global market. Scotland has internationally protected the term "Scotch". For a whisky to be labeled Scotch it has to be produced in Scotland. If it is to be called Scotch, it cannot be produced in England, Wales, Ireland, America or anywhere else. Excellent whiskies are made by similar methods in other countries, notably Japan, but they cannot be called Scotches. They are most often referred to as "whiskey". While they might be splendid whiskies, they do not captivate the tastes of Scotland. "Eight bolls of malt to Friar John Cor wherewith to make aqua vitae" The entry above appeared in the Exchequer Rolls as long ago as 1494 and appears to be the earliest documented record of distilling in Scotland. This was sufficient to produce almost 1500 bottles, and it becomes clear that distilling was already a well-established practice. Legend would have it that St Patrick introduced distilling to Ireland in the fifth century AD and that the secrets traveled with the Dalriadic Scots when they arrived in Kintyre around AD500. St Patrick acquired the knowledge in Spain and France, countries that might have known the art of distilling at that time. The distilling process was originally applied to perfume, then to wine, and finally adapted to fermented mashes of cereals in countries where grapes were not plentiful. The spirit was universally termed aqua vitae ('water of life') and was commonly made in monasteries, and chiefly used for medicinal purposes, being prescribed for the preservation of health, the prolongation of life, and for the relief of colic, palsy and even smallpox.

  • Global Malt Lex-Icon As Published on the Maltmadness.Com Web-Site (
    GLOBAL MALT LEX‐ICON Check‐list v3.0 This check-list of the world’s malt whisky distilleries is essentially a country-by- country summary of the Global Malt Lex-icon as published on the maltmadness.com web-site (www.maltmadness.com/lexicon.html). Each distillery has a little check-box to allow you to keep a quick-and-easy record of the distilleries whose malt whisky you have tasted. Distillery names in red are distilleries whose malt whisky has been bottled as a single. When a name is given in green that means that the malt has not matured long enough yet to be bottled. Blue distillery names signify distilleries that distill malt whisky for blending purposes only (at the moment; who knows what the future will bring!). When a distillery is not operating anymore, its name is given in italics (if a distillery itself is still operating, but distilling of malt whisky has been discontinued, the distillery name is given in bold italics). In parentheses behind each region and country name are the numbers of distilleries in the various categories. What we have not included are malt whisky distilleries ‘in the planning stage’. There are quite a few of these plans worldwide but, rest assured, as soon as the first drop comes off their stills, they will get their rightful place in the GML!
