New Zealand Pacific Gem Hop Profile
Initially released in 1987 by the New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research, Pacific Gem™ offers pleasant bittering (13-16% AA) and a balanced profile of cohumulone, myrcene, and humulene. Aroma of toasted oak that blends with ripe blackberries and sweet citrus make Pacific Gem a fine hop for darker beers like stouts. Although it was originally introduced as a bittering hop, Pacific Gem has been used across many styles and applications. Beautiful bittering, unique flavor, a rare gem.
