A Honeycrisp grown In the Upper Midwest is still the best and unfortunately the most expensive apple you can buy.
- Tomte 8y agoI've never seen it in German stores. Pity. We've got two big fruit regions, the region around Hamburg, and the region around Lake Constance. I remember fondly how as a child my family was taking a holiday in the Lake Constance region and we tasted all those apples I hadn't heard of before (well, I think I never really registered apple sorts besides "sweet red" and "sour green". Names like Berlepsch.
- 2trill2spill 8y agoYea it's amazing how many different apples there are. But if you found a Honeycrisp in Germany it won't be as good as one grown in the Upper Midwest region or other select regions(Upstate NY and Washington State). There's a lot of Honeycrisp grown in Chile and New Zealand and although good they are not as good as a local apple and they are the same 4$ dollars a pound. In fact the University of Minnesota the creator of both apples actually will only let specific growers in the Upper Midwest, Upstate New York and Washington State grow the SweetTango to keep quality high[1].
