The Kent Golding was imported hop from England that was developed by clonal selection from 1790 on a starting from Canterbury Whitebine. It has a light fluffy cone structure that is small in size. The Golding has quite small amounts of pale yellow lupulin. When picking, drying and baling care is needed because it can shatter if too dry. The Goldings are very much desired by brewer's because of their great use for kettle hopping, late hopping and dry hopping.
