malted
Explanation:
I believe the word you're looking for here is "malted". Check this site for instance:

"Whisky is distilled in Scotland from malted barley in Pot Stills ..."

Your phrase is very similar: "In Scotland, whiskey is distilled from malted barley."

Thank you, Rowan. The text is english is very similar and although the expression "saccharified" (with "h") exists, I think "malted" comprises both words: saccharified with malt

Saccarified (with malt)


Explanation:
Saccarify

Saccharification:
The malt is poured into one of the eight tanks at the base of the cookers. For 90 minutes, the malt will rest and the diastase power of the malt will act to transform the starch into sugar: that stage is called saccharification. Temperature upon exit is 65°C.
