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.
