Bred by Ellerslie Hop Estate, Melba is affectionately known as "The Dame of Hops". It is a dual purpose hop with a high oil content and has similarities to Galaxy. When used as a bittering hop early in the boil, it imparts a clean somewhat spicy bitterness. Used as a flavour or aroma addition, it contributes passionfruit, grapefruit and citrus.

"Thank you Kegland. The hops arrived in quick time and in good condition. I haven't had a chance to make a brew to use the hops but, im planning to over the weekend. I have shopped a number of times with Kegland and I like the range of products and the service. I will continue to buy products from Kegland."
"If you haven't tried Melba can certainly recommend. Pairs well with galaxy and a range of different hops. Nice peach to it."
"nice fruity hops like the 25g packaging"
"Nice fruit salad aromas"
"Looking forward to combining the Melba and Galaxy hops together for a mildly bitter, yet lightly tropical and fruity session ale in a classic Pale Ale style - YUM 😊"
