Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to spring two-row types. It is a specialized malting barley, which for a long time occupied dominant positions in the UK and Scottish markets due to high yield indicators and stable adaptability to various weather conditions.

The grain is characterized by suitability for malting production due to high friability, increased starch content, and low protein level, which contributes to an effective alcohol yield. In the whisky production industry, the variety is known for the specific floral character of the distillate.
