Description

Cashmere is a versatile dual purpose hop that brings complex aromas of citrus and tropical fruit to the front.

Complex and intensely fruity, with strong overtones of lemon, lime, peach, and melon. Secondary notes of coconut, lemongrass, candy, and herbs can show through in whirlpool or dry hop additions. Cashmere really shines when used for aroma and flavor in hop-forward styles, or where the intensity of its exotic tropical notes will complement sour, fruited, or funky ales. Its respectable alpha content combined with low cohumulone lets it contribute smooth bitterness if used early in the boil. Cashmere hops were developed by Washington State University by crossing Cascade and . It was first released in 2013.
