People get so excited about Honeycrisp! It is different - it has sweet juicy breaking flesh that is an unrivaled texture experience. For flavor it is sweet, with a hint of sweetness - not the most character for a pie - but if you need refreshment on a September day this apple is like watermelon on the 4th of July.
]]>Gala - you can find these at the supermarket all year, so we only have a couple trees. When they are fresh, they are sweet with an almost floral aroma. Crisp. The ones you get in June about to celebrate their first birthday give apples a bad name. Eat a strawberry in June, eat these in September!
]]>Discovered as a seedling in 1870. The earliest russet - tastes like a pear. Delightful.
]]>Sansa - Candy-sweet little apples. Crisp, keeps fairly well. Can't walk by without snacking on one.
]]>Akane is a Japanese desert apple - crisp, sweet-tart and spicy. Also one of the most beautiful apples ever!
]]>Zestar! This apple is kind of a narcissist...first it blooms like crazy for longer than any other tree in the orchard, and then it cranks out these beautiful red-orange apples before the rest are even coloring up! If you like Macintosh you will like Zestar - this apple is easy to eat, juicy, and tasty. Hints of brown sugar and apple pie.
]]>A summer apple that tastes like a fall apple! Beautiful red on green, tart apple flavor means fall is coming.
]]>Our first apple of the season. Crisp and juicy, sweet and refreshing on a late summer day.
