New Opportunity For Significant Cost Savings In Non-Chill Filtration Whisky Process

It is the goal of spirit producers around the world to make stable, high quality products that meet customer expectations and deliver good profitability.

During the production of spirits, filtration is one of the most challenging and important steps of the process.

Quality is the main driver of filtration in the spirits industry. However, to select a suitable filter, it is important to consider visual quality while still maintaining the flavor characteristics consumers expect.
