What is a "McIntosh"?
The McIntosh apple is a classic variety known for its bright red skin with green patches and creamy white flesh. It originated in Canada in the early 19th century and has since become one of the most popular apple varieties worldwide. It has a tender texture and a sweet-tart flavor profile with hints of floral notes. McIntosh apples are juicy and aromatic, making them ideal for both eating fresh and cooking. Inside, they contain a small core with seeds surrounded by soft flesh. McIntosh apples are commonly used in pies, applesauce, and cider due to their excellent flavor and ability to break down easily when cooked.
