Ahtanum® Brand
Bred by Yakima Chief Ranches, Ahtanum® YCR 1 is a distinguished aroma-type cultivar renowned for its unique blend of herbal and woody aromatic properties. Ahtanum has moderate bittering potential and is typically used as a late-boil, whirlpool, or dry-hop addition.
The variety is named after the location where Charles Carpenter established the first hop farm east of the Cascade Mountains in Washington State in 1869.
Characterized by a distinct profile that combines floral, spicy, and citrus notes, Ahtanum® is often described as having hints of cedar or black pepper. Moderate alpha-acid content makes this a balanced hop suitable for a wide range of traditional and modern styles.
