Another New York state variety, the Macoun was introduced in 1923 as a McIntosh – Jersey Black cross. Named after Canadian fruit breeder W.T. Macoun, this apple has a very strong following and is an excellent, extremely crispy, eating apple. It is by far one of our most requested varieties! Many use Macouns for cooking, but they are excellent fresh eating apples, too.
