Rahr GN Zero Distillers Malt is a high-quality distilling malt made from Glycosidic Nitrile (GN)-free, North American 2-Row barley. Its specifications and flavor profile make it an excellent neutral base for a variety of spirits, including bourbon and American Single Malt Whiskey. This malt contributes earthy and grainy notes, complemented by subtle hints of bread crumb and sprouts.

Understanding Glycosidic Nitrile (GN)
Glycosidic nitriles are organic compounds naturally present in significant amounts in certain barley varieties after malting. During the distilling process, GN can form ethyl carbamate (EC), a known carcinogen. Many countries have regulations on EC levels in spirits, and the United States may implement stricter limits in the future. Choosing Rahr GN Zero Distillers Malt helps distillers create products that are ahead of potential regulatory changes, ensuring a "future-proof" choice for aging spirits.
