Homegrown raw materials for the brewery and distillery.
As well as efficient grain harvesting and logistics, careful attention is paid to grain conditioning and storage to generate higher add value. "Some of the equipment in our grain store is not found on any other farms," explains Duncan More. Including the colour sorter, which ensures that only the best quality grain reaches the market or their downstream processing systems. This level of care and professionalism feeds through into the on-farm brewery and distillery. "Not many breweries and distilleries grow their own raw materials – such as wheat and barley. We can trace the grain right back to the field it came from. We always have complete control of the processing – from malting and drying to storing and finally to distilling. This helps us in a number of ways," says Nikolas Fordham, General Manager of the Ramsbury Brewing & Distilling Company.
