I'm open to suggestions for a hop schedule for an IPA. I'm looking for resinous/piney/earthy/herbal and not citrus. I don't want my beer to taste like a grapefruit. Basically I want this beer to smell and taste like being in a witch's cupboard in a boreal forest.

I have Nugget and Hallertauer.

I was thinking Nugget for FWH or bitter, and Hallertauer, Willamette and Chinook for flavor/aroma.

Any other suggestions?
 
Nugget, chinook, summit, colombus. These always work well for me for a non-citrusy ipa
 
Why not use all 4 listed? The first thing that came to mind was Columbus--then Chinook. I also like Willamette as a flavor hop for an APA or IPA (like 30 min addition). Also consider some Simcoe (even though every time I have used it, I never really get the "pine" people speak of).
