Horizon
Horizon is a versatile hop with some star qualities. Created in Oregon in 1970, Horizon is a diploid hop and half-sister to Nugget.
Considered dual-use it has high alpha acids, but also low cohumulone, a trait considered highly favorable when bittering. Its high myrcene and high farnesene content give it some great aroma and flavor notes too, both floral and citrusy.
Horizon will add notes of a floral bouquet to the aroma, as well as provide some essence of citrus fruits.
