Willamette T90 Hop Pellets US Hops

Willamette T90 Hop Pellets US Hops

Willamette is a classic American aroma hop with strong British roots. Developed in Oregon from English Fuggle breeding stock, it offers a gentle blend of earthy, herbal and floral notes, with hints of wood, spice and soft hedgerow fruit.

Its mellow character makes Willamette a great choice for English bitters, American amber ales, brown ales, porters and traditional pale ales. It brings depth and balance without the punchy citrus or tropical flavours associated with many modern American hops.

Use Willamette late in the boil for its delicate aroma, or earlier for a smooth, rounded bitterness.
