That strain is actually no longer available. I am inquiring with our technical staff to see what might be the best yeast for your application. I will get back to you as soon as I can. Our tech guy thinks ICV GRE is the best choice. We don't make that in small sachets for home winemakers, but More Winemaking buys bulk packs of our yeast, including that variety, and repackages it for resale. You can order the yeast from them at http://morewinemaking.com/search/103218//4 . Keith Lemcke Danstar & Lalvin Premium Yeast |
