Ekuanot hops offers a burst of pleasant aromas from tropical fruit, papaya, and mango notes that pairs well across all fresh-flavored styles. Ekuanot is an up-and-coming hop with bright citrus and melon aromas that gradually matures into a ribbon of green pepper. It sweet and fruity, but seemingly not fruit. Noted for an indescribably unique berry-and-fresh-pepper character.

Cryo Hops® utilizes the most innovative technology in cryogenic processing where whole-leaf hops are separated into concentrated lupulin and bract at extremely low temperatures to preserve the essential oils and resins. The result is an enticing LupuLN2® hop pellet that doubles the hop potency by 40-50% of traditional hop pellets for the same weight. Producing an enhanced hop flavor with juicy, resinous and fruity characteristics that is perfect for IPA beers and styles.
Used this to boost the aroma on the NB "Fresh Squished IPA" kit. Just added 1oz to the dry hops that came along with the kit. The aroma of the resulting beer was amazing. It smelled like freshly squeezed tangerine with undertones of honeydew melon and mango. Mmmm.
