New Zeeland has always had a special place in my heart and the first time I tried NZ hops I was blown away. The pure decadence of these hops is hard not to love. It was then known as D Saaz, now its name is Riwaka. NZ hops is NOT cheap (none of the super aromatic hops are...) but who cares when it is so indulging and mean something far from f***ing close to water?!
