A classic English dessert apple with exceptional balance and aroma. Kidd’s Orange Red has a rich, honeyed sweetness reminiscent of Cox’s Orange Pippin—one of its parents—paired with the floral fragrance and creamy texture that make it a favorite among heirloom enthusiasts. Its skin is flushed red over golden-yellow, with crisp, fine-grained flesh that’s juicy and fragrant.
Developed in New Zealand in the early 20th century by J.H. Kidd, this variety is also the parent of Gala, and you can taste the family resemblance: aromatic, sweet, and deeply flavorful. Best enjoyed fresh, but also lovely in salads and cheese pairings.
