Description
One third of the CTZ trio, and the dankest: black pepper, resin and marijuana-adjacent pungency over high alpha. Doubles as a cheap bittering hop and as the classic dank note in West Coast IPA dry hops. Tomahawk is this same cultivar under Yakima Chief’s trademark, so a recipe that names either means this hop.
