German term

prägend

German to English Science Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng Thiole
Die Verbindungsklasse der polyfunktionalen Thiole ist für Special Flavor-Hopfen sehr *prägend*. Ihre Geruchsschwellenwerte sind äußerst gering. In höheren Konzentrationen riechen sie sehr unangenehm, in sehr geringen Konzentrationen vermitteln sie jedoch die typischen Aromen von schwarzen Johannisbeeren und tropischen Früchten.


would this be characteristic here???? Or does it mean that they give character to the hop variety?

TIA
