Description

This is the only GRAFTED vs seedling, cider-specific apple that MORP has found during its mapping work that has documented thousands of historic apple trees in Colorado. Cider makers are sure to love this bittersweet apple even if its original name has been forgotten.

For now, MORP refers to it as Big Head Todd.

It’s bittersweet
More sweet than bitter
Bitter than sweet
It’s a bittersweet surrender
