New Zealand grown dual purpose US Cultivar (Cascade) with citrus “grapefruit/lime” characters. During selection this hop displays quite exceptional levels of citrus moving more to New Zealand tropical fruit characteristics.
Performs well when used as a single variety across multiple kettle additions or when singled out as a late gift or dry hopping duty. Can do some really great things for the hop advocate when matched up with some of the other New Zealand aroma heavy weights such as Motueka or Riwaka. A fun hop in the brewery which literally sighs with pleasure when plunged into a hop back. Typically employed in “new world” style pale ales and creative brewers are using it for very intense summer ales where its fruit forward aroma and oils profile make for a refreshing finish.
