Nelson Sauvin: Pellets

$3.49 – $17.99

High enough alpha acid content to make it truly dual-purpose, but best known for its distinct gooseberry, white wine-like aroma. Nelson Sauvin’s lush tropical fruit character and low co-humulone levels have made it a favorite for IPA. Adds a lovely dimension to saison and wheat ales as well.

Flavor and Aroma:

Striking and pronounced elements of cold-climate Sauvignon Blanc and freshly crushed gooseberries. Also look for Key lime, pine needles, earthy dill, and tropical fruit (lychee, papaya, passionfruit).

Country of Origin:

New Zealand

Suggested Substitute:

Motueka

Alpha Acid Range:

12 – 13%
