$9.70Willamette Hops - Pellets (NZ)
Although Willamette can contribute good bittering, NZ Willamette dominates its usage for its flavour and aroma. This results in a delicate peppery herbaceous spice that has both fruit and floral essence. This translates well into most beer styles and can be used in Stouts through to Pale ales and lagers. In big hoppy beers Willamette also pairs well with other citrusy hops.

Superdelic™ is a triploid variety (cultivar) that was crossed by Dr. Ron Beatson in 2012 through the NZ Hops partnership breeding program with Plant and Food Research (PFR). Superdelic™ was developed from both European and North American ancestry. After showing promise in clonal selection trials, and showing sensory attributes of berry fruit in pilot brewing trials, Superdelic was fast-tracked into the NZ Hops trial hop farm programme in 201, due to its unique aroma and chemistry profile.
This exceptional hop is a playful number, and the unique oil chemistry profile produces red fruit, candy, citrus and tropical fruit characteristics, offering brewers something totally different to use in their craft.
Superdelic™ is a versatile hop that can be used as a single hop addition and has great synergies in combination with other hops. Pairs well with Citra, Simcoe, Nelson Sauvin, Motueka and Riwaka.
