Originating from New Zealand and processed by Yakima Chief Hops using their proprietary cryogenic technology, Nelson Sauvin® Cryo captures the pure lupulin of the hop cone, leaving behind the vegetal plant matter and concentrating the essential oils and resins to roughly double the potency of standard T90 pellets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat makes Nelson Sauvin® so iconic is its unmistakable white wine character — a vivid evocation of Sauvignon Blanc grape, fresh gooseberry, and tropical passion fruit, lifted by notes of fresh cut grass and a clean, bright fruitiness that is unlike any other hop variety on the market. In Cryo form, this character is amplified to its fullest expression, making it ideal for brewers who want Nelson’s signature profile to dominate the final beer without loading up on vegetal material. Cryo pellets are particularly prized for dry hopping, where their high lupulin concentration delivers exceptional aroma efficiency and a cleaner, smoother mouthfeel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith its elevated alpha acid content, Nelson Sauvin® Cryo is also a powerful bittering option — though its true calling remains in late additions and the dry hop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCryo hop pellets\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduced by cryogenically separating the lupulin glands from the hop cone at harvest. The result is a highly concentrated pellet with approximately twice the alpha acids and essential oils of standard T90 pellets. Use at roughly half the rate of T90 for equivalent bitterness, or at similar rates for dramatically increased aroma intensity.\u003cbr\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor \u0026amp; Aroma\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e • White wine and Sauvignon Blanc grape\u003cbr\u003e • Gooseberry and fresh tropical fruit\u003cbr\u003e • Passionfruit and melon\u003cbr\u003e • Fresh cut grass and subtle resinous notes\u003cbr\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIPA: Hazy\/NEIPA, American IPA, Double IPA\u003cbr\u003ePale Ale: American Pale Ale\u003cbr\u003eSpecialty: Wine-inspired beers, sours, experimental ales, lagers\u003cbr\u003eBest suited for dry hopping and whirlpool additions where concentrated lupulin delivers peak aroma efficiency.
