Really the shining light of the three perennial grains we trialled. A true perennial, meaning that it is not a hybrid of wheat and an ancient grain, it continues to produce a harvest over four years+ after planting. It's a small grain but the flavour is powerful. Along with Matt Newell (from the NSW DPI who leads this project) we have decided that this is really the grain to move forward with. So I want to get this name out there, hopefully once we malt it and grow a bit more of it we will see more perennial grains in beer, whiskey, bread, cereals... anyway its a grand dream but we will see where it leads.

120 bottles available - limit of 2 per person.
