What is a place where whisky made called?

Here's a breakdown of the process:

* Grain is sourced: The distillery begins by acquiring the grains needed for whisky production (typically barley, but also rye, wheat, corn, etc.).

* Malt is created: The barley is soaked, germinated, and dried to create malt.

* Mashing: The malt is crushed and mixed with hot water to extract sugars.

* Fermentation: Yeast is added to the sugar-rich liquid, turning it into a wash.

* Distillation: The wash is heated, causing alcohol to evaporate and then be captured as a distillate.

* Maturation: The new make spirit is aged in oak barrels, often for years.

* Bottling: The aged whisky is diluted with water and bottled.

So, the whole process of making whisky happens at the distillery!
