Named after the Mutsu province of Japan these were introduced in 1948. These are aromatic and sharp and will sweeten a little with time. These are fine for baking as well. For those of you who love a firm, crunchy apple like Granny Smith these should be a favorite. We find these to be challenging to grow in an organic orchard as they are very prone to scab.
