Riwaka Pellets T90 (5kg)
A standout in New Zealand’s craft beer scene, Riwaka boasts nearly twice the oil content of its parent, Saaz. With a near 1:1 alpha-to-beta acid ratio, it delivers intense sweet citrus aromas, making it highly sought after for hoppy beer styles. Originally known as D Saaz, Riwaka was developed through HortResearch’s “hops with a difference” program and officially released in 1997. Its bold flavor profile makes it a favorite for brewers seeking vibrant citrus character.
