During peak apple season several of our local grocery stores (Portland metro area!) Have all kinds of random apple varieties. Some are only available for a week or so. Pink flesh, yellow flesh, different kinds of baking apples etc. We seem to have choices with fresh fruit up here, pears, strawberries, cherries etc. Makes up for the lunacy of the I5 corridor, I guess. I hope the tastings don’t go away forever with COVID-19 protocols.

I used to look for Winesap apples but now live in CA where they can’t be found- I guess. But I recently tried a new variety — Cosmic Crisp which is very good,

It has started to appear in CA stores this Fall. (2019)
