Variety notes - Spring Barley
« Back
  • Appaloosa is a specific recommendation for the North East region.

  • It is fully approved by the IBD for the production of malt for distilling. It provides malt of good quality for malt whisky distilling but has been slow to become widely used.

  • In the North East region it is a high-yielding with treated yields in trials 3% higher than Oxbridge.

  • It has good resistance to brackling.

  • It has good resistance to mildew and yellow rust but is susceptible to Rhynchosporium.

  • Breeder/ UK Agent: Nickerson (www.nickersonseeds.co.uk).
