Aroma Hops GERMAN SAPHIR Hop Pellets 1oz Hallertau Sapphire from Artisan Hops

$3.00

Saphfir, sometimes called Saphire, Sapphire, or Hallertau Saphir, has developed quite the cult following.    Saphir is almost always used as an aroma hop as it has very low bittering.  This is a noble-like variety with one of the lowest alpha acid content of any commercial hops. Expect a citrus bouquet of sweet tangerine and a hint of spice.   The low alpha acid range of just 2% to barely 5% minimizes its use as a bittering addition. These characteristics make Saphir a good match for beer styles like Belgian Ales, Wheats, and Witbiers. The best hop substitution for Saphir hops is the German varietal Hallertau Mittelfruh.
