“Good Stand” on our crop of Manx Barley

It hardly feels like 5 minutes since we were down at Scarlett Farm at the end of March watching the sowing of our crop of Laureate Barley destined to one day become Manx Single Malt Whiskey.... 

Initially an unseasonably dry spell of weather meant not a lot happened....but the more recent rains have germinated the seed and the field is now a stunning verdant green with a good stand of well established young barley shoots waiting for some warmth and sunshine now to bring them on. They won’t be getting that today...but thankfully it was a much more pleasant day when Co-Founder Tiffany, visited the farm last weekend!

It won’t be long before we hopefully see a beautiful swathe of Manx Barley swaying in the salty island breeze....
