Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to old historical cultivars, the origin of which is subject to significant confusion, as different cultivar types are often described under the common name in various regions of Germany. Historical literature mentions a variety of Dutch origin, while modern forms are often identified as distinct regional varieties.

The tree has medium-vigorous growth and high yield, demonstrating frost resistance down to -35°C, while remaining susceptible to scab, powdery mildew, and fruit rot. The fruits are predominantly small or medium-sized, conical or acute-conical in shape, with smooth yellowish-white skin, sometimes with a reddish blush.

In terms of ripening, this is a winter variety; fruits are harvested in October, and consumer maturity begins in January. The fruits are distinguished by high keeping quality, remaining fresh until June. The flesh is white, fine, juicy, with a spicy flavor featuring notes of cinnamon and a predominance of sugar over acid.
