Waimea 2024 100g Hop Pellets

Waimea is a “big” hop with high alpha acid and a powerful aroma profile. It provides both solid bitterness and an intense, fruity character with distinct citrus and pine, making it particularly well suited to strong and modern hoppy beers.

Origin: New Zealand
Aroma/flavor: Citrus (orange, grapefruit/tangelo), tropical fruit (pineapple, passion fruit) and distinct pine/resin
Uses: Dual-purpose – suitable for both bittering and late addition/dry hopping
Beer styles: IPA, DIPA, Pale Ale and hop-driven lagers
Alpha acid: 15.4%
Vintage: 2024

Packaging:
The hops are gently weighed, nitrogen flushed and sealed in light-tight aluminum-coated packaging for optimal shelf life.
Flushing with nitrogen displaces oxygen that would otherwise degrade the quality of the hops. This method lowers the oxygen content in the bag to 0.6-0.8% oxygen which is very good for preserving quality/taste/aroma. The hop bag is stored cool at <4 degrees Celsius.

The opened bag is squeezed together and closed with a ziplock for further storage in the refrigerator.
