Maçã da Cova da Beira

These apples hail from three varieties – Golden Delicious, Red Delicious, and Jersey Mac. They have unique organoleptic properties that come from the special soil and climate of the region in which they are grown, situated between Serra da Gardunha and Serra da Estrela in Portugal.

The climate of this territory shelters the apple trees grown there from strong Atlantic winds. Medium to large in size, the apples are characterized by their typical bright color of their skin, which usually ranges from yellow to red. They are eaten whole or sliced, or can be used in the production of fruit juices and numerous desserts.
