Aromatic Essence: Gently floral and herbaceous, with nuanced aromas of soft meadow flowers and fresh garden herbs. Its delicately spicy undertone (thanks to elevated farnesene oils) brings a refined warmth, blending cleanly with a whisper of woody-earthiness and a nuanced tea-like character .

On the palate, Tettnanger offers soft, elegant bitterness, with a balanced backbone that highlights its aroma without overpowering malt sweetness. Its sensory profile may reveal light citrus or pear notes, along with subtle pine and resinous traits in some expressions—particularly in dry-hop additions .

This hop is the epitome of classically restrained European character—graceful rather than bold, ideal for brewers seeking finesse and nuance. It shines in styles that benefit from gentle floral-spicy grace over aggressive fruit or resin, making it a top choice for premium lagers, Kölsch, Belgian whites, and elegant session ales.
