Bred in Pataskala, Ohio.\u003cbr\u003eFrom the same growers who developed EverCrisp; the Ludacrisp apple is quickly gaining popularity.\u003cbr\u003eThe flavor was so unusual that Mitch Lynd took it to The Ohio State University’s Flavor Research and Education Center.\u003cbr\u003e“I said: ‘For the life of me, I cannot tell what I’m tasting here,’” he said.\u003cbr\u003eThe flavor lab found that the ester compounds that are the principal flavor drivers in MAIA-L are also the principal flavor drivers in pineapple, European red grapes and strawberries.\u003cbr\u003e“When the principal flavor drivers of pineapple, grape and strawberry hit your tongue at the same time, it’s very fruity tasting,” Mitch Lynd said. \u003cbr\u003eAnd those ester compounds survive fermentation, which is why hard cider made from Ludacrisp also can have a fruity flavor. \u003cbr\u003e“I’ve spent lots of time trying to find apples that taste exceptionally good,” he said. “This apple repeatedly scores at the top of taste tests.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fruit Growers Marketing","offers":[{"title":"2 lb bag","offer_id":47527394803886,"sku":"13641-0200","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/8727\/8254\/files\/13641_4d4846be-b479-4780-ab59-b8de53e7d08e.jpg?v=1765528030","url":"https:\/\/yellowbirdfs.com\/products\/ludacrisp-apples","provider":"Yellowbird FS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
