Hi Owen, thanks for the question. Here is comprehensive explanation by Shona Wall from SAFE:
The reason for this taste difference is due to variations in natural products. With processed foods most of the time the taste and smell hardly ever differs as the ingredients are not completely natural and are very controlled.
With the Green Barley no processing is done and therefore you only get the natural product. As the Green Barley shoots rely on sunshine and rain to provide colour and strength this varies with the weather conditions and means you will normally never get the same taste, smell and colour.
Green Barley gains its colour from chlorophyll, a natural substance found in all plants. As chlorophyll is naturally occurring it cannot be controlled. The amount of chlorophyll can dictate the strength and colour of the green barley. The more chlorophyll the better as this can boost the amount of nutrients found in the green barley.
Every batch of our Green Barley is packed in a therapeutic laboratory and we assure you that the product is of the finest quality. Our Green Barley is tested for quality and freshness by our therapeutic laboratory staff.
