Product Description

The McIntosh apple is a early and heavy producer. It's a favorite apple for eating out of hand but also is widely used in salads, sauces, pies. It is a mainstay in fresh cider and an all-time favorite for fresh eating and salads. The McIntosh style is typified by attractive dark red or (more often) crimson colors, and a crunchy bite, often with bright white flesh. The flavor is simple and direct, generally sweet but with refreshing acidity. They keep reasonably well. McIntosh is without doubt one of the great North American apple varieties and has been crossed with many other apple varieties. Most of its offspring are actually better apples in one way or another. Needs a pollinator.
Hardy to -30°F
Maximum Elevation: 8,500 ft.
