Yeah Jonagold is very popular here as well. If that's too acidic for you then you won't like Antonówka :) Never tried Starkrimson I think? But it looks similar

Never tried Starkrimson I think? But it looks similar to the ones in malls from the photos.
Both my grandpas had like a dozen different kinds of apples (one tree of each) - I think they planted them more to have apples through the year than for their taste. The early summer ones (papierówki?) were awful. Small, totally white, very squishy and tasteless (not acidic and not sweet).
- petre 5y agoStarkrimson looks a bit like Red Delicious whoch you see in the supermarket but it's smaller and harder at first. Like Granny Smith hard. Not acidic and it tastes a bit banana flavoued. It's also too hard when picked off the tree, I think you need to keep in in the cellar for at least two weeks. It's best used for juice, but rather sweet. Might be very useful in a blend to balance acidity of other apples. I think my dad accidentally combined it with Florina and got good juice out of them. Yes, I know the summer apples. Horse and donkey food. Some people like them though. Poland has very good apples and possibly the best apple cider I had. Dorbonski, I think, not sure though.
