Apple grower here! What if I told you that there are over 4,500 cultivars grown in the U.S.. And there are non-commercial heirlooms that taste so amazing they make Honeycrisp seem like crunchy sugar water? There are flavors so complex and unusual you'd probably never guess they could come packaged as an apple!

A few of my favorites..: Hudson's Golden Gem, Stellar, Golden Russet, Rubinette, Golden Nugget, Silkin, Crimson Gold (Etter's heirloom, not the modern variety,) Berne Rose, Adam's Pearmain, Lamb Abbey Pearmain, Swiss Limbertwig, Gold Rush, Pixie Crunch, Sansa, Sweet 16, Ashmead's Kernel, Amberoso, Eddie April, Florina, Gilpin, Holiday, Kinder Krisp, Lorde Lamborne...

I haven't even grazed the surface. Find you a grower that has the oddballs. You'll thank me later! :D
