It’s neither chance nor money that got them there, it’s pure high-quality raw materials and their burning interest in creating products that really make a difference. Science has identified that hop oils, besides seasoning the beer, have plenty of good effects on the skin such as: preservative (which is its function in beer, apart from the taste!), antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, mentally relaxing, anticarcinogenic. Plenty of reasons to give HUMLE’s hoppy products a chance!
