Titan' is the latest breeding success from the Hüll Hop Research Institute.
This variety was bred to have a high bitter content and high resistance to pests and diseases. In addition, adaptation to climate change through high drought tolerance was also taken into account.
'Titan' is very new on the market (2023) and is only just becoming an important and reliable hop variety.
'Titan' is the result of classic cross-breeding and carries the genetic material of 'Herkules' and 'Polaris', which is reflected in its high and reliable bitter content, among other things.
