With the sun now shining, the longer days and the ground warming up, the farm team are busy on the fields drilling this years Spring Malting Barley crop.
The variety being sown is Laureate from Syngenta. This is a variety with dual use which means it can be used for both brewing and malt distilling.
So the next time you’re enjoying a bottle of beer or a malt whisky, just think, you could be enjoying the delights of some Rougham Estate grown Malting Barley.
That would surely make it taste even better!?
