Orin apples

Orin is an apple variety that dates back to 1952, when it was bred in Aomori, Japan. The apples are large, oblong, and yellow in color. The flesh is pale yellow and aromatic, while the flavors are sweet with a hint of pear and pineapple.

The texture of the flesh is juicy. Orin apples are usually available in mid-October, and it's recommended to eat them fresh as a snack, or baked due to their natural sweetness. Pair the apples with strong cheeses, chicken, and pork, or use them in sandwiches, pies, and muffins.
