Kazbek is a Czech aroma hop bred from Saaz and a wild Caucasian hop, with a lemony, spicy character, packed as 200g of T90 pellets.

It keeps some of the classic Saaz spice but adds a brighter citrus character, bridging old-world noble hops and newer aromatic varieties.

Hop profile

  • Origin: Czech Republic (released 2008)
  • Alpha acid: 5-8% (varies by harvest - check the pack)
