PEACH-MANGO LEMONADE, CANDIED ORANGE PEEL, BOYSENBERRY, PAPAYA & GUAVA, COMPLETELY VOID OF RESINOUS/PINEY CHARACTER

The bright fresh fruits of Luminosa make us feel transported to the sunny white sands of a Caribbean beach, and inspired the name which is Latin for “full of brightness.” In 2013, hop breeder Shaun Townsend at Oregon State University decided to collect some open pollenated seed from a Sorachi Ace female. Hallelujah! We found a kid with mum’s striking citrus character that also took up fresh tropical fruits – AND managed to leave mum’s less desirable traits behind.

 

CHARACTERISTICS

Peach-mango lemonade, candied orange peel, boysenberry, papaya and guava can all be found. Unlike most “punchy” hops, Luminosa is almost completely void of the resinous/piney character that usually comes along for the ride – adding to the versatility of this hop.
