This week, we’re turning the tables and diving deep into the unsung hero of whisky—barley!
Ever wonder where that golden nectar begins its journey? Join us as we explore barley's origins, its crucial role in whisky, and even some surprising health benefits (because who knew your favourite dram could be good for you?).
We've got two legends on board to help us unravel the secrets of barley. Innes McPherson, who’s been farming barley in Speyside since the dinosaurs roamed (okay, just 75 years, but still impressive), and Colin Johnston from Crisp Maltings, the guru of industrial-scale malting. Together, they'll spill the grains on everything you never knew you needed to know about barley in Scotch whisky.
Tune in for an episode that’s as informative as it is entertaining – because we golden promise this isn’t just another whisky podcast! (see what we did there)
