Profile
Excelsior hops are a testament to the rich agricultural diversity of New York, representing the first 100% New York-grown and processed hop blend. This innovative product is the result of a collaboration between the New York Hop Guild and the experts at Hoptechnic, who have meticulously selected and blended the finest hop varieties from the region.
The flavor profile of Excelsior hops is complex and tantalizing, marked by tropical mango and lychee notes, complemented by a bouquet of floral aromas and a medley of sweet fruits. This blend is particularly suited for crafting beers where a pronounced hop character is desired, adding a layer of depth and aroma that can elevate pale ales, IPAs, and other hop-forward styles. The unique combination of flavors works harmoniously to provide a sensory experience that is both exotic and familiar, making it a versatile choice for experimental and traditional brewing alike.
