Variety: Simcoe DESCRIPTIONLupuLN2 hop powder and pellets are produced from whole leaf hops using YCH HOPS™ proprietary cryogenic separation process that preserves all components of each fraction.LupuLN2 is purified lupulin powder containing most of the resin compounds and aromatic oils derived directly from whole hop flowers.
