About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
A late, very long‑storable apple from New Zealand with a strong reddish‑brown skin. It needs a long, warm season to fully ripen; in milder areas of the DACH region it does best on a house wall or trellis. It rewards you with crisp fruit until far into spring.
You will find it very firm and juicy, with a pronounced sweet‑acid balance and spicy aroma. After a few weeks of storage it becomes rounder and more balanced.
