NZ Nelson Sauvin™

Described during selection as breathtaking, Nelson Sauvin™ has the unique ability to impart a distinctive cool climate white wine fruitiness. The complexity of the oils profile has seen selectors stretched looking for descriptors to document this unique new world variety.

A hop that may require judicious application in the brew house, this truly unique dual-purpose variety can be used to produce big punchy Ales as well as subtle aroma driven Lagers. The fruitiness may be a little overpowering for the un-initiated, however those with a penchant for bold hop character will find several applications for this true brewer's hop.

Very much at home in the new-world styles such as American Pale Ale and IPAs. This hop is considered by some as being extreme and it certainly makes it presence felt in specialty craft and seasonal beers while having gained a considerable international reputation in recent times.
