Styrian Golding, also known as Savinjski Golding, is a traditional Slovenian aroma hop derived from English Fuggle. Renowned for its delicate, earthy, and spicy character, it imparts subtle notes of white pepper, floral, and herbal nuances. Ideal for late boil additions and dry hopping, Styrian Golding enhances a variety of European-style ales and lagers.
Introduced to Slovenia in the early 20th century, Styrian Golding adapted from its Fuggle origins to the unique terroir of the region. It became a staple in European brewing, especially favored in Belgian and English ales, for its refined aroma and flavor contributions.
