Description

Enigma is a hop variety released by the Hop Products Australia in 2013 with a breeding program using Swiss Tettnang and North American hops. It was originally cultivated in 2002.

Enigma is an aroma hop that is typically used in only late boil additions, including dry hopping.

The Enigma hop has distinct tropical fruit, berry, stone fruit aroma descriptors. It also has hints of juicy red fruits like raspberries and red currants, but what sets it apart from other varieties are the white wine notes.
