Jupiter Gold Apples
The Jupiter Gold apple is a modern English apple cultivar known for its excellent, robust flavor and its versatility. It is a cross between the well-regarded Cox's Orange Pippin and the American Starking Delicious apple. The Jupiter Gold apple has a greenish-yellow skin that ripens to a golden-yellow with flushes of orange-red. The flesh is crisp, juicy, and dense, with a flavor that is a more robust and slightly sharper version of a Cox's Orange Pippin. Its taste has been described as a "fruit cocktail" due to its complex and aromatic profile.
