Speyside Was Renamed In Honor Of The Space Experiment

Sign marks experiment as ‘one giant leap for dram’ In an experiment conducted in collaboration with scientists at the University of Guelph, Canada, barley seeds were sent into space in May 2021 on a Space X rocket. The seeds, which were donated by Chivas Brothers, were sent to the International Space Station to test whether they could withstand the effects of its extreme conditions, including zero gravity, extreme temperatures and cosmic radiation. Led by School of Environmental Sciences professor and director of the Controlled Environment Systems Research Facility, Dr. Mike Dixon, the experiment was part of the university’s ongoing research into growing crops in space. The goal of the test is to ensure access to fresh produce for astronauts on long-duration missions, as well as provide clean water captured from the process of respiration, providing oxygen and removing carbon dioxide. The results are now being analyzed in relation to the conditions the seeds were exposed to, which will help determine which deep space conditions they could survive. Dixon commented: “Historically, when people discovered new land, they produced alcohol, including whiskey. As a whiskey lover, I want to maintain this tradition as we continue to explore the possibility of life on other planets. “We look forward to partnering with The Glenlivet and following the barley seed’s journey back to Earth.” Upon their return to The Glenlivet Distillery, the grains will be planted, malted and distilled into an “astronomical expression” of one of the brand’s single malts, as The Glenlivet continues its efforts to “break convention” in whisky. Jayne Murphy, marketing director for The Glenlivet, said: “We’re always looking for new ways to innovate single malt production, and by partnering with the University of Guelph on their ground-breaking space experiment, we had the opportunity to do just that. “We are excited to see how the seeds will perform as they are planted, harvested, malted and distilled into one of our iconic single malts. We hope it will create a new, alien expression with great taste.” In January, Nemiroff released a limited edition Moon Edition made to celebrate the launch of the Ukrainian Sich-2-30 satellite into orbit, following launch on Space X’s Falcon 9 rocket. Last year, Nemiroff was named an official partner of robotics technology company Spacebit’s 2022 lunar mission.
