Inky Orchard

I’ve discovered my favorite kind of apple. Harris Teeter had free samples of them recently, and as a result of their surprising tastiness, I brought home a couple.

Identity? They are called Jazz Apples. There is even a website dedicated to their existence.

Immediately upon bringing them home I realized the coloring looked exactly like the glass apple jar my mom has always kept in our kitchen display. Remarkable isn’t it?

If I had to describe them: satisfyingly crunchy and crisp, sweet but not sickeningly so, and happy like a warm, sunny, healthy day. Yes, they taste happy.

Go get yourself one.
