Newslink: Why Scotch Distilleries Love their Mills

If you’ve ever been on a distillery visit in Scotland, you’ve probably seen a mill. You’ve been told its brand (Boby, maybe, or the famously self-defeating Porteus brand). You’ve probably heard about that all-important ratio of flour to grits to hulls (usually in the ballpark of 10%/70%/20%).
