The varietal clasification of hop products according with Romanian and European regulations is done in several groups according with their use in the brewing industry as aroma and bitter hops. The clasification is done according with some chemical parameters, but these do not garantee that the product is a pure variety or is a blanding. Using chemometric method as cluster analysis, clasification according with chemical description of hop products the clasification can be predicted more precisely.
