The Braeburn, like the Ginger Gold, was also a chance seedling, this time, discovered in New Zealand. The Braeburn produces a medium to large fruit of very high culinary quality. The apple is colored with an orangish -red blush over a yellow/green background. Its sweet/tart flavor, crisp and juicy flesh, has contributed to its winning the Northwest Fruit Tasting for the last 4 years. The Braeburn Apple also displays high current and future demand in the domestic market, as well as good export potential. The acreage's planted to the Braeburn are small, therefore the volume being produced is low: this is increasing the already high market demand. The Braeburn is a good, long keeper, (shelf life-8 months in regular storage)
