  • Barra Bronzes

    The Michie family have farmed at Lochend of Barra for just under a century. They rear the very finest award winning turkeys following traditional methods passed through the generations. Their turkeys roam around the fertile land of their farm where they instinctively forage for insects and graze on brassiness, apples, pears and rye grass. This ensures a richer flavour with distinct nuances. They are grown very slowly, dry plucked and then game hung to ensure a greater depth in flavour.
