I am finding many of the new club apples really need to be stored and sampled
in order to achieve anything above ordinary in flavor. Which is to say, they
are very expensive because so many are wasted in the sampling. There seems
to be no correlation between them either. So you 5 of the same variety and
one may taste okay and 3 eeks later another one may now taste great but the
remaining 3 may suck.

So while they may be enforcing growing standards it appears to me that there
is huge breakdown in the distribution process, mixing apples so the consumer
has not idea when they are actually ready to eat. I have been very, very
disappointed with what boils down to a crap shoot to land a good tasting one.

I don't remember if I've seen the apple discussed on NAFEX but our stores
have been carrying the Envy Apple and it's phenomenal - honeycrispluke but
more Apple flavor, imo.
