Barley is a fantastic crop, ideal for low input farming systems, and a delicious and versatile ingredient. This distinctive dark variety, introduced to the UK by the British Quinoa Company, has a high level of anti-oxidant anthocyanins, giving it a rich purple-black colour and sweet nutty flavour.

Rich and malty black barley flakes are a delicious addition to muesli or granola. They’re also great toasted and sprinkled on salads, for baking, or to thicken and add flavour to soups and stews.
