Blato

About

Blato was one of the first hops authorized in Czechia (formerly Czechoslovakia) for commercial production. It is not usually singled out, but is one of the collective known as Saaz Hops, or Bohemian Early Red. It doesn't yield very well in the U.S., but it is suspected to be much more prolific in its native homeland. Zatec Hop Company in Czechia states that in the analysis of the oils and resins, Blato and its siblings have proven to have the same fine aromatic profile of other Saaz hops one that is genuine and delicate.
