The hops arrived in an unsealed zip lock bag, with no information about type, age, alpha or beta acid content. I cannot use these without this information. This is the worst way to ship hops. Other vendors I will continue to deal with, give me vacuum packed, labelled hops. I ordered London ESB yeast but was shipped a completely different Windsor yeast. Worst online purchase yet.
