Description:
Rich in taste and history, the Pippin Apple dates back to the 17th century and is among the favorite of Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Queen Victoria. This is a well-balanced, sweet Apple with great acidity and a tart lingering aftertaste. The yellow flesh is crispy and juicy with complex flavors that develop when stored. The Pippin is a beautiful light green, yellow with russet near the stem and is aromatic with hints of sweet pine.
Slow Food NYC is issuing seeds to farmers, gardeners and schools to keep the variety popular among communities in New England and California because of the ideal growing conditions.The Apple was grown as a dessert Apple but is now most commonly used for ciders.
