Swaar Apple Tree
USDA Certified Organic Dutch settlers in Hudsons River Valley named this Swaar, heavy apple. The Swaar apple has flesh that's firm, fine, creamy white and dense. The Swaar apple is flavored with a spicy, sweet, rich and aromatic essence. The fruit is at its best when mellowed to sweeten in storage upwards four to six weeks. Once Swaar softens the flavors explode. The Swaar apple is one of a few late keepers that hang on the tree into winter. Downing, in 1878, referred to the Swaar as "a truly noble American fruit and one of the finest flavored apples in America." One of the favorites at our previous apple tastings.
