Is it crispy? Yes. Is it sweet? Yes. Is it tart? Yes! Wait. What? This variety of New England apple may be the greatest apple on planet earth. And it breaks my heart to announce it's name to those ignorant of it's existence. But I must.

My deepest apologies to my fellow members of the 'cult' that this gentlemen refers to. I can't believe how many people have never heard of the 'Macoun'. I pronounce it Mick-Cow-En and I eat about a peck of them every year. (That's about 10 lbs of them for you city folk.)

The peak season for them is RIGHT NOW! Run, don't walk, to your nearest orchard and try a fresh picked one today. The coolest thing about them is how they seem to taste sweet with one bite and tart on the next bite. If you agree, I'll see you at the next cult meeting.
