Riwaka Hop Profile

Riwaka™ hops are one of the most prized varieties to come out of New Zealand. Riwaka Brand 85.6-23, also referred to as D Saaz, is a triploid hop variety with "Old Line" Saaz genetics. The Saaz genetics really shine in Riwaka as it has much of the same aroma, but just more of it. Riwaka has nearly double the total oils of Saaz so expect powerful citrus aromas of pink grapefruit. This fresh and zesty aroma makes Riwaka a great fit in any IPA or Hazy style.

Riwaka Hop Reviews

"Exceptional hop for those Hazy IPAs - Used Riwaka along with Nelson and Galaxy in a hazy IPA. All purchased through Yakima Valley. These were of exceptional quality. Much Much better than what I have bought elsewhere (and way cheaper per ounce even with shipping included). For Riwaka specifically, if you use it as the primary hop in a blend, you really get to see it stand out. This is one of my favorites now and I purchased more just today." - Felipe S. 2/7/2022

"One of my favorite hops ever, and they don't get better than the product from Yakima Valley Hops - Fresh, super fragrant..... and amazing flavors!!! Added this into a NEIPA with Motueka, and Nelson. Riwaka shines!" - Jason L. 2/8/2021
