Ancient variety rye starter, only ever fed stone milled organic "Brot Champagner" variety rye.
Just boosted once on the very first day with oat bran water. When ripe, it develops amazing exotic fruit aromas and flavours. Ananas, unripe banana, and a hint of mango.
Created mid February this year, I baked the first loaf out of it a mere 4 days into its creation and it turned out to be very nice.
