Willamette

Willamette (pronounced “Wil-AM-et”), is primarily an aroma hop, and most successfully produced in Oregon due to its growth characteristics. Its English-type aroma is often described as pleasant with a hint of spice and a smooth, soft flavor. Although Willamette can contribute slightly to the bittering of a craft beer, Willamette dominates its usage for its flavor and aroma. Of the oils in Willamette, myrcene, humulene and farnesene are all elevated above the norm. This results in a delicate peppery herbaceous spice that has both fruit and floral essence. Since its introduction, Willamette Hops has been growing in demand as well as supply. It is one of the most common aroma hops used in the United States. And brewers that use it seem to use it a lot, as it has become the foundation of modern Craft brewing in the USA. Aroma: mild and pleasant, with a fragrant spice/woody aroma
