Cashmere is versatile dual purpose US hop that brings complex aromas of citrus and tropical fruit to the front. A cross between Cascade and Northern Brewer released by Washington State University in 2013, Cashmere is a dual-purpose stunner evoking coconut, melon, tangerine, and other tropical and spicy notes alongside smooth bitterness. Pedigree Cashmere was released by Washington State University in 2013. A daughter of Cascade, it includes Northern Brewer germplasm through the male parent. The alpha acid content of Cashmere is higher than Cascade. Cashmere contains no Farnesene and twice as much Humulene as Cascade Form: Type 90 Hop Pellets Pack Sizes: 100g 250g (SAVE 10% OFF 100g Price) 500g (SAVE 15% OFF 100g Price) 1Kg (SAVE 20% OFF 100g Price) 5Kg (SAVE 30% OFF 100g Price) Brewing Usage Dual Purpose. Cashmere really shines when used for aroma and flavor in hop-forward styles, or where the intensity of its exotic tropical notes will complement sour, fruited, or funky ales. Its respectable alpha content combined with low cohumulone lets it contribute smooth bitterness if used early in the boil. Aroma Citrus Herbal Tropical Fruit Aroma & Flavour Characteristics Complex and intensely fruity, with strong overtones of lemon, lime, peach, and melon.
