A traditional indigenous variety from the Saaz group which is mainly cultivated around Tettnang on Lake Constance. The unique combination of the favorable climate at Lake constance and sandy clay soils form the Ice Age produces a very fine aroma. This variety has a good tolerance to plant diseases.

In the raw hops, woody aromas and cream caramel components, such as resin and almonds predominate, combined with fruity blueberry and spicy curry.
