SweeTango


There's a new kind of apple that will be on (in?) the market next year, and it's the lovechild of Honeycrisp (S's favorite) and Zestar. They're calling it SweeTango. I'm feeling lazy today, so here's some clips from the SweeTango website.

About SweeTango®

Origin - Developed by the same apple breeders at the University of Minnesota who released the popular HoneycrispTM. SweeTango has quite the "family tree" and is a cross between two very popular apples - Honeycrisp (mom) and Zestar!TM (dad) - yet it delivers its own unique flavor and tasting experience.

Flavor - Juicy and sweet with hints of fall spices, SweeTango's flavor, balanced by vibrant acidity, dances to a long and satisfying finish on the palate. It also features the satisfying "crunch" of a Honeycrisp.

Appearance - SweeTango is a blush apple with deep red coloration over a yellow breaking background.

Availability - SweeTango will hit the shelves, in limited volumes, at select retailers beginning in fall of 2009. SweeTango is an early-season apple, harvested in late August and early September.

Do I get a medal for that 4th place finish?
