East Kent Golding Hop pellet

East Kent Golding hops have one of the longest lineages as they were first introduced in 1790. East Kent Golding was bred from a wild Canterbury Whitebine variety and went on to define the noble hop characteristics of soft and gentle aromas of spice and citrus. Typically used in crisp and refreshing lagers and traditional styles.
This hop has a very fine aroma and is appropriately called the king of the English hops. There is simply no better hop for an original IPA or a traditional English Bitter. Often used for late hopping, but also suitable as bittering hop due to the higher alpha-acid content. There are many varieties of Goldings with the best flavour historically coming from East Kent. The exact alpha acid content is indicated on every package.
