Cashmere Hops - Fresh Pellets - 1oz

Cashmere hops are a modern American hop variety known for their smooth tropical fruit character and soft citrus aroma. Developed by Washington State University and grown primarily in the Pacific Northwest, Cashmere hops offer a balanced blend of fruit-forward aroma and gentle bitterness.

Brewers often describe Cashmere as delivering notes of melon, coconut, citrus, berry, and subtle stone fruit with light herbal undertones. This smooth and layered flavor profile makes it particularly well suited for juicy hop-forward beers where bright aroma and drinkability are key.

Cashmere performs especially well in late boil additions, whirlpool hopping, and dry hopping where its delicate fruit aromas can fully develop.

Cashmere hops are widely used in modern craft brewing thanks to their smooth fruit-forward aroma and balanced bitterness.

Ideal for:

• IPA
• Pale Ale
• Blonde Ale
• Kölsch
• Wheat Beer

Cashmere pairs well with other American hop varieties such as Citra, Mosaic, Amarillo, and Simcoe to create layered tropical and citrus hop character in modern hop-forward beers.

• Add early in the boil to contribute smooth bitterness
• Use late boil additions to enhance melon and citrus hop flavor
• Add during whirlpool or hop stand to maximize tropical hop aroma
• Dry hop during fermentation to create bright juicy aromatics
• Store sealed in the freezer to preserve freshness and hop oils

Cashmere combines well with hops like Citra, Mosaic, Amarillo, and Simcoe to build complex fruit-forward hop profiles in modern IPAs and pale ales.
