Product description Apples

The Elstar apple originates from the Netherlands and was developed from a cross between the varieties Ingrid Marie and Golden Delicious. These medium sized, round to conical apples are visually striking due to their yellow green base with a bright, vivid red blush.

Beneath the bi coloured skin lies firm, crisp flesh that is exceptionally juicy. The flavour is a carefully balanced combination of sweet and tart, rounded off with a pronounced aromatic and lightly spicy undertone.

Environmental & biodiversity impact Growing fruit means working together with nature. That is why we operate under the ‘On the way to PlanetProof’ certification. This means we go beyond standard requirements to protect the environment. For years we have implemented measures such as flower strips and insect hotels in our orchards. In doing so, we minimise our ecological footprint while maintaining high fruit quality.
Animal welfare As fruit growers, our focus lies on biodiversity within our orchards. We actively create a healthy habitat for local fauna and pollinators, which are essential for a successful harvest. A healthy environment is inseparably linked to healthy crops.
Social impact We are a family business and take good care of our people. Through our GRASP certification, we demonstrate our commitment to fair labour practices, safety and good social conditions. In addition, we actively invest in the next generation of fruit growers as a recognised SBB training company and by offering internships.
