The second edition of Colere continues our exploration of new varieties of barley, bred outside the commodity system with flavor first in mind (not just yield). Colere Edition 2 is a limited annual bottling made with Talisman, a 2-row winter variety descended from the irrepressible Maris Otter and matured in only used casks to relegate the oak influence to a supporting role and focus the attention on the grain itself.
