McIntosh

Nothing evokes fall better than the aromatic fragrance of McIntosh apples! They’re sweet with a tart tang and very juicy.

This variety is named after John McIntosh, who discovered the first seedling. Today, McIntosh apples grow particularly well in New York’s cool climate.

Its tender white flesh cooks down quickly, so add a thickener if making pie.
