I did an all grain recently and decided to use imported Fuggle hops in it. When I opened the bag I was not all that much in favor of the smell but I was low on choices. It was kind of "earthy" for lack of a better explanation, borderline something I might smell in my basement. Is that normal and do you like using them. The beer came out good but that smell came through in the beer and I would have been happier with some other hop aroma.
