I love hops especially the aroma. So one day a couple of weeks ago I was thinking of what I could do with them alternative to beer. I came up with the idea of making a Hop candle. I have worked the costs and how to make them and in theory it should work. Now I am not really a candle guy but my lady sure is and personally I would rather smell some delicious hops than apple cinnamon. So before I made some prototypes I figured I would see what other people thought about it.

Below I have attached a pic of a label design I did.

If you do intend to sell this or something like it, PM me before you go forward with your labeling and we'll chat a bit.

Sounds like a great idea and I'd be interested to check it out. Good luck!

I'm a huge hop fiend and would definitely buy some of these...I'd think there are enough other hop lovers out there for these to do well!

Mmmmmmm Hops!

I'd be happy to do some QC testing for you as well as make a purchase if you end up going into production :thumbsup:
