Visitor reviews
- 26 Nov 2011 WI, United StatesThis is a delicious sweet little yellow apple. To me it tastes somewhere like a cross between Golden Delicious and Cortland. It is a little crunchier than both of those. Great dessert apple or for snacking. Great for kids. I will be buying some of these again next year!
