Empire Apples

The Empire apple is a hybrid of the Red Delicious and McIntosh varieties, inheriting the best qualities of both. It has a beautiful, glossy red skin with a hint of green blush. The flesh is crisp, juicy, and bright white, offering a delightful crunch. Its flavor is a perfect balance of sweet and tart, making it a versatile choice for both cooking and snacking.
