Viking
Viking apples originated in South Dakota in the early 1900's. This apple is bold maroon with an almost purple-ish flush, crisp and juicy with a sweet-tart flavor. They are typically large apples, round, smooth, and glossy. Vikings are a complex cross between
Jonathan, Red Delicious, Malus floribunda, William's Early Red, Early McIntosh, Starr, and Rome Beauty apples. Vikings are perfect for cider, dessert, juice, pie, and sauces.
