Image: Columbia Hop Storage Facility

A well-lit, industrial interior of a large hop storage facility, filled with stacks of burlap sacks and wooden crates overflowing with fresh, aromatic Columbia hops. The foreground features a close-up view of the textured burlap sacks, their colors ranging from deep green to golden yellow, exuding the distinctive earthy, floral scent of the hops. In the middle ground, rows of neatly organized crates stretch out, some open to reveal the cascading green hop cones within. The background showcases the expansive, high-ceilinged space, with large windows letting in natural light and casting warm, diffused illumination across the scene. The overall atmosphere conveys a sense of meticulous organization, quality control, and the importance of proper storage in preserving the integrity and flavor profile of these premium hops.
