Bruichladdich Bere Barley 2006 70cl Whisky

Bere barley is one of the oldest cereal crops in Britain. It may have been brought over by the Vikings in the 9th Century and has been grown ever since, having been used in single malt whiskies before (much) higher-yielding strains of barley became available. The 21st century has seen distilleries experimenting with these older types of grain, as we see in this edition from Bruichladdich's Uber Provenance range. Bere Barley 2006 was produced from crops planted in the Achaba and Achfad fields on Kynagarry farm, Islay. The fields hadn't been used for agriculture in over a century, and no chemicals were used.
