Fifth Crow Farm
Mutsu Apples (2lb bag)
$8
Unit price perMutsu — also known as Crispin — is a large, late-season Japanese variety developed from Golden Delicious and the Indo apple, introduced to the US in 1948. Greenish-yellow, very juicy, and firm with a complex flavor: sweet and honeyed with a refreshing tartness and a subtle spicy note with hints of anise. An exceptional keeper that stays crisp well into winter, and equally good fresh, baked, or pressed into juice.
