Because of the very low content of bitterness it's especially interesting for usage beside bittering. It can be used for late hopping in brewing or for example in teas or cosmetic articels or all other ideas to which bitterness is disturbing.

This variety is said to be aromatically similar to 'Saaz', with a higher alpha content.
'Sorachi' has a good yield and good resistance to mildew, wilt and botrytis. The flavour of this variety is unique.
