These are intensely flavored late season apples. They are entirely russet covered. The trees are disease and pest resistant and are biannual bearers. The apples taste like an amazing, complex, cider and are quite tart. They also ferment into the most complex, single varietal cider we’ve made. It’s a classic English apple from the Victorian era. As a dessert apple they are quite tart, but I would eat them with a caramel sauce or served with a soft cheese and nuts to balance and mellow the strong flavor.
