A maltster where you’d least expect one
Well, maybe it’s not Antarctica but…
The geography of Chile is ripe for creating world-class malts. Chilean fields are largely protected from diseases, pests, or phytosanitary problems that affect the rest of the world. This is in part because of the Atacama Desert to the north (known as the driest desert in the world), glaciers to the south, the Andes Mountains in the east (the world’s tallest mountain range after the Himalayas), and the Pacific Ocean in the west.
