Mhor Bread is on a site that’s been a bakery for over 100 years. We – the Lewises, owners of Monachyle Mhor hotel in Balquhidder – bought it in 2007. We make traditional handmade bread every day, and aim to keep things simple, using only Scottish-milled flour, water, and salt, plus a slow-fermentation process for our sourdough, and only adding yeast in some breads.
