Albemarle Pippin has a rich flavor and a firm, juicy texture. It is excellent for cooking or eating fresh. It is considered to be the best cider apple. It's flavor improves with storage. Albemarle Pippin was discovered in New York in 1759. It may have come from England about 1666. It was grown by George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. This apple was a favorite of Queen Victoria, and was the only food she exempted from the import tax. It's popularity faded because it is difficult to grow.

Not worth it. Sadly.
Not good. Mushy.

I liked their smoothness and lack of tartness
I liked their smoothness and lack of tartness. They were smaller than I expected so I had to use more than I had planned to.

Grandma’s Apple Pie
I couldn’t get Pippen apples anymore on the West Coast. My grandmother used them in her pies exclusively. Was missing the flavor, so I ordered this holiday. Three pies later and they did not disappoint!
