Idaho 7 Hops
Idaho 7™: a bold and aromatic hop developed by Jackson Hop Farm in Wilder, Idaho, and released in 2015. Known for its pungent tropical fruit and citrus flavors—think apricot, orange, red grapefruit, and papaya—complemented by big notes of resiny pine and hints of black tea. Idaho 7™ is versatile, excelling in aroma and dry hopping applications, but its high alpha acid content also allows it to contribute smooth bitterness when used early in the boil.
