Riwaka Hops
NZ Riwaka Hops
Riwakas heavy oil content (nearly twice that of her Saazer parent) gives her high grapefruit and passionfruit notes which, really does makes her the ultimate for hoppy beers. Nearly a 1:1 ration of alpha to beta, averaging at 5%. With cohumulone running 29-36%, and a unique oil balance, Riwaka is considered the darling of the New Zealand craft beer scene.
