Anyone used Wai Iti from NZ?

I've got some on the strength of the alleged Lime and citrus aroma - anyone vouch for them?

I love NZ hops: NS, Kohatu and Motueka, but never been able to get hold of any Wai iti.

In January 2012 Marstons did a single hop beer for one month only with Wai-iti. It was the only beer I drank down the pub that month. What a beauty that was!!

Enjoy!!

I got some from Rob (The Malt Miller) about a year ago and absolutely loved them. Bought some more from him recently.
Bittered with something neutral like Magnum and used late/dry, they are stonkingly good. Citrus and stonefruit a plenty. Right up there with the best I've used.

Just used them in a blonde and bittered with magnum also. Loved them so much I bought nearly half a kilo. Going to do an IPA with them next. I use Motueka in my golden ale too, that's another nice one.
