Characteristics
The El Dorado hop brand was released by CLS Farms LLC in Moxee Washington in 2010. Little information is available about its pedigree, but it is believed to be derived from a neomexicanus subspecies of Humulus lupulus. Its primary flavor character is fruity showing a blend of tropical fruit, watermelon and stone fruit.
