Recently made a fantastic NEIPA with El Dorado, Azacca, and Idaho 7. I think the latter is putting off a tea-like/spicy taste that throws the whole thing out of balance. The idea is, obviously, a super juicy/fruity flavor. I'm thinking Mosaic? I'd like to stay away from Citra, Amarillo, and Simcoe as I use those in other beers.

Any other ideas? Maybe a NZ hop (other than Galaxy)? Something domestic?
 
I wanted to say Galaxy, but since you said other than...what about Vic Secret? It's kind of like Galaxy but a little less muted. Have a NEIPA with Galaxy and Vic Secret dry hopping right now and the it's a tropical juicy explosion of aromas!
