Sultana ™ is a descendant of Nugget, Zeus and the experimental USDA 19058m. His first cross was born in 2006 and he joined the brewers for the first time in 2019. So it is part of this new generation of hops with lots of oils and lots of alphas! Sultana is the name of one of the most imposing mountains in the US, a perfect name for this hop with a lot going on 😉
