Nectaron hops – 5 kg

Nectaron 5kg:

Nectaron® is a highly popular aromatic hop developed in collaboration with Plant & Food Research in New Zealand. Genetically, this variety is the sister of the Waimea hop.

Nectaron® delivers powerful aromas of tropical fruits such as pineapple, passion fruit, peach, and grapefruit.

This hop is perfect for Strong Pale Ales and IPAs. Nectaron® reveals its full aromatic potential in hopstand or dry hopping. While it pairs beautifully with other hops, it is also strong enough to shine on its own.
