A single malt milestone in the Scottish Borders 🙌

Earlier this week, The Borders Distillery in Hawick announced the release of its inaugural single malt wh**ky and the first wh**ky distilled in the Scottish Borders since 1837 🥃

Since spirit production began in 2018, we have supplied malt to The Borders Distillery from our Tweed Valley Maltings in Berwick-upon-Tweed, which is less than 40 miles away as the crow flies 🌍

However, our relationship with the distillery extends beyond simply malt supply through Borders Growers & Distillers, a partnership bringing together The Borders Distillery, Simpsons Malt and ten farming businesses located within a 30-mile radius of Hawick, creating a fully traceable malting barley supply chain 🌾

After eight years, we'd like to congratulate The Borders Distillery team on this landmark achievement and wish them every success with the launch 🤝

Agronet France lovin’ 😍

We’ve been working with our trusted French distributor AgronetBrewing France since the early 2020s and it’s not just us who love working with them!

Yohan Le Troidec from Brasserie Tête Haute and Cedric Geffroy from 1989 Brewing tell us why it’s important to them to have an ingredients supplier who shares their love for b**r, while also being responsive and easy to work with 🍻

Delivery 🔜

Our Bagging Hall is always a hub of activity. Inside, prior to reaching the bagging line, the malt is cleaned via a magnet, metal detector, screens and a de-stoner 🧲

Then, depending on customer specification, the malt can be milled, providing the opportunity for customers to take their finished product crushed 🌾

Onto the bagging line, the 25kg bags are filled with malt, sealed, labelled, loaded onto a pallet and then secured for transport, ready to be delivered to our brewing customers 🍻
