Liquid yeast should always be kept refrigerated and handled carefully to help maintain performance. Our refrigerators are temperature monitored 24 hours a day to help keep yeast in proper storage conditions. We strongly recommend shipping liquid yeast with ice packs, especially in warmer weather. If your ice pack arrives melted, that is normal and helps protect the yeast from extreme temperature swings during transit rather than keeping it ice cold the entire trip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Great Choice for Distillers Looking for Clean American Whiskey Character\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are looking for a White Labs whiskey yeast that offers dependable attenuation, solid alcohol tolerance, and a clean fermentation profile for American-style whiskey, WLP065 is an excellent strain to have on hand.
