Viewing Saaz Hops

Saaz Hops
€4.75per 100g
Saaz is a noble hop, the heart and soul of classic Bohemian and Czech pilsners. Grown in the Žatec region of the Czech Republic, it possesses a delicate and refined aromatic profile that is unmistakable.
Its aroma is characterized by soft, spicy, herbal, and floral notes. Saaz is primarily used for aroma rather than bitterness, as its alpha acid content is low. It imparts a classic European elegance and clean taste to the beer.
If you aim to brew an authentic Czech pilsner, European lager, or Belgian ale, Saaz is an indispensable ingredient.
