Discover the experimental and artisanal process of the Rosinette apple from May 1994 up to year 2015, a variety of apples offered by Marked Apples, by consulting the article of Agropomme: The experimental and artisanal process of the Rosinette

According to history, the first apple tree was planted in Quebec in 1629. 200 years later, grafting of the trees was introduced and during the next decades, a few hundred varieties were thus developed. Most, if not all, of these varieties no longer exist and it would not be until about 1930 that John McIntosh from Ontario introduced the now renowned McIntosh. Even though this apple is still the best seller in Quebec, apple growers and organisations are still looking for “THE” apple of tomorrow.
