Cashmere

Cashmere is the result of the joining of Cascade and Northern Brewer, a process developed by Washington State University that was released in 2013. Cashmere has higher alpha acids than that of Cascade. It serves a good dual-purpose hop, showcasing flavors of lemon, lime and melon while exhibiting a smooth bitterness. Mild aromas accompany Cashmere with a hint of subtle herbal bouquet.
