Cashmere Hop Rooted Rhizome
This dual purpose hop released by Washington State University in 2013 is a unique cross between the popular Cascade hop and Northern Brewer. It passes along the citrus lemon-lime flavor and aroma of Cascade as well as tropical fruits like coconut, melon and spices. Because of its higher alpha acid and low cohumulone, it adds a smooth bitterness to the brew.
Used to brew: Pale Ales, IPAs, Saisons, Wild Ales, American Blonde, American Amber
Alpha acid: 6.9-10%
Beta acids: 3.7-7%
Co-humulone: 22-24%

Farnesene: <1% total oil
Humulene: 26-29% total oil
About Rooted Rhizomes:
Certified Organic Rooted Rhizomes are two-year hop plants organically grown without the use of pesticides, fungicides or herbicides. They have produced crowns full of buds ready to produce healthy bines plus vigorous root systems. The standard rhizome cutting is the typical way to start a new hops plant but it doesn't have a crown and a root system, that is created the second year. These Organically Grown Rooted Rhizomes give you a great head start towards harvesting that crop of hop cones you'll be looking forward to.
Note: hops are shipped beginning in March after they are harvested. Order now for the best selection.
