Vintage Virginia Apples ...from the rich orchard heritage of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains Dabinet |
|
|
|
DABINET is thought to be a seedling from the 19th century of Chisel Jersey, likely named for the grower. It is a full, bittersweet and a vintage variety. The tree is weak in growth, but self-pollinating and precocious in cropping. Small in size, it is greenish-yellow and very aromatic when fully ripe. The juice is sweet and astringent and produces an astringent full-bodied bittersweet cider. Likely, its quality as a vintage cider keeps it in production. |
