Nelson Sauvin Hop Cone

Nelson Sauvin™

Nelson Sauvin™ is a unique New Zealand hop celebrated for its bold, complex aroma reminiscent of white wine grapes. Bursting with flavors of gooseberry, tropical fruit, and citrus, it also offers subtle herbal and spicy undertones. With moderate alpha acids and intense aromatics, Nelson Sauvin is a favorite for IPAs, pale ales, and experimental beers seeking a signature fruity character.

Sensory Analysis

Amarillo is a game-changer for our brews. The bright citrus punch especially the orange and grapefruit notes, bring our IPA to life. It's smooth and versatile and delivers the  bold aroma we love.
