SC - Barley malt syrup?

[SCAbeathog at cs.com]

Our discusstion of last week concerning golden syrup has sparked in me a new 
interest in sweeteners.  While searching wildoats.com, I came across 
something called barley malt syrup, and wonder if any of you have any info on 
it.  It says:

Barley Malt Syrup
 Considered one of the best natural sweeteners, because of the slow-digesting 
sugars. Made from sprouted barley. Thick, sticky, malty, similar in 
consistency, color and flavor to molasses. Use for cookies, muffins and cakes 
with strong flavor; good with ginger, carob or chocolate.
 
Anyone?
