Variety description

10 August 2026

The apple variety Sofie æble is known in scientific literature as an old Danish variety. Within the framework of metabolite profiling studies of apple juice, it was established that the fruits of this variety possess a specific taste with pronounced bitterness and an increased concentration of polyphenolic compounds.

Detailed agronomic and morphological characteristics, such as ripening period, tree height, parental forms, or disease resistance, are absent from open publications. Due to the limited data, this variety is classified as a rare or local breeding variety.
