 THANK YOU TO OUR PARTNERS

ADMIRAL MALTINGS

Admiral Maltings employs the age old art of traditional floor malting to turn sustainably grown grain from California farmers into quality malt. Admiral’s small batches enable distillers to work with freshly-kilned malt with unparalleled flavor and aroma that carries through to the finished product. Admiral is leading the movement in California to build quality grain-based spirits around fresh, local and sustainable malt. Distilling with Admiral helps tell a deeper story of regional agricultural character and connects drinkers with the farmers who grow our grain, the traditional art of floor malting and the flavor of freshly kilned malt.


NY INTERNATIONAL SPIRITS COMPETITION

The only international spirits competition where all the judges are real trade buyers judging the spirit by its category and actual price. Your spirits do not have to be sold in New York and open to all commercially produced spirits from around the world. Top buyers including distributors, retailers, f&b managers and mixologists are judging your spirits. We have supported craft spirits producers since we started 13 years ago and was the first international spirits competition to have an American Single Malt Category in our competition. Top winners are showcased on our Prosumer site the www.alcoholprofessor.com.


TEXMALT

Our passion is grains. We partner with farms to connect brewers and distillers with the highest quality locally sourced grains available through our process here at the malt house.
