![]() Absolutely amazing apples! Purdue, Rutgers and Illinois (PRI) patented this variety 1993, bred as a cross of Golden Delicious and Coop 17. This variety was almost discarded because the breeder felt like it ripened too late, but it was saved and has become a popular variety grown for winter storage. Stored Gold Rush may start to shrivel over a couple months, but they retain their flavor and firm texture and so continue to be great for fresh eating during the winter months. Really! A favorite for eating, pies, varietal cider, and drying. ![]() If properly stored, can be kept for many months. Develops an excellent and unique aromatic sweet flavor after several weeks of refrigeration. ![]() Sweet-tart with a complex fruity spicy flavor with hard, breaking texture. ![]()
