Description

An ancient Tibetan barley grown out on the farm and malted pale, tasting of almond and earth where a modern two-row tastes of nothing much. Extract is a surprising 82 % for a landrace. Voyager publish no diastatic power, so that figure is class-typical for a pale barley malt — leave conversion capacity elsewhere until you have mashed it once.
