For my part, I am really ready for the start of the 2016 harvest, probably not for another 6 weeks.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06245776593991049317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-64687313650534536082016-06-14T18:37:15.257-04:002016-06-14T18:37:15.257-04:00Adam and I apparently have a similar way to test w...Adam and I apparently have a similar way to test whether we like an apple or not: if I keep reaching for more of one type of apple, I must like it. When I got to my 8th Lady Alice apple (on June 12 BTW), I went back and bought 3 more bags before they are sold out. I took a bag to work today and everyone really liked them. No chemical taste reported. <br /><br />I'm eating these apples in mid-June and they are all tasting great: very crunchy with a burst of mouth filling juicy fruitiness(yellow raspberries), followed by a mild tartness and astringency to balance the sweetness. <br /><br />Thus, I conclude that this apple needs a pretty long storage to get optimal taste. So, the marketers should consider dialing back getting them to the stores too early or they are going to ruin people to this great apple!Eastern WA Apple Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09787555112124842792noreply@blogger.com
