The fluffy one is correct, apple flavors do change with length of time
in storage and even at storage temperature. Also one's evaluation is
dependent upon his personal preferences. Example: Some years back I
bought a variety from Starks named Fall Gold. It is a yellow apple,
large, very very crisp (literally snaps when you bite into it), very
juicy but flat on flavor. My son believed it was the most awesome apple
he ever bit into, I wouldn't give you a nickel for bushel basketful of
them. I love Mutsu, not nearly as firm (even mealy after storage), not
nearly as juicy but full of fantastic flavor by my taste buds. All of
my neighbors make regular trips to the tree as they love it. The point
is what's awesome to one person isn't awesome to everyone. I have
purchased Envy and I thought the taste improved after sitting on the
kitchen table for a week but would much rather have Mutsu. _
To each his own crapshoot_. Ah, this gives me an idea for naming test
varieties in one's breeding orchard, Crapshoot-1, Crapshoot-2,
Crapshoot-3 etc.

I am finding many of the new club apples really need to be stored and sampled in order to achieve anything above ordinary in flavor. Which is to say, they are very expensive because so many are wasted in the sampling. There seems to be no correlation between them either.

So while they may be enforcing growing standards it appears to me that there is huge breakdown in the distribution process, mixing apples so the consumer has not idea when they are actually ready to eat. I have been very, very disappointed with what boils down to a crap shoot to land a good tasting one.

I don't remember if I've seen the apple discussed on NAFEX but our stores have been carrying the Envy Apple and it's phenomenal - honeycrispluke but more Apple flavor, imo.

Re: [nafex] Envy Apple
See the following http://tinyurl.com/clubapples . Envy is listed as a club
apple and you have to belong to the club to grow them and you cannot buy
individual trees of it.

[nafex] Apple photo collection
Gang,
The following link may prove interesting to some of you.
Essentially it is a collection of beautifully photographed apple varieties, many of which I am not familiar with.
The photos are of excellent quality.
