Etymology

The word 'maltier' derives from 'malt', which has its roots in Old English 'mealt', meaning 'to grind' or 'milled grain'. Dating back to the early days of agriculture, malt has been an essential ingredient in brewing and baking. The process of malting involves soaking cereal grains in water, allowing them to germinate, and then drying them to halt the growth. This practice has been used for centuries, with historical records indicating malt's significance in ancient Egyptian civilization in the production of beer. Over time, as brewing and baking techniques evolved, the term 'maltier' emerged to describe foods and drinks with pronounced malt characteristics. Today, it is commonly used in culinary contexts to denote a richer, sweeter flavor profile, especially in the beverage industry.
