Jazz (apple)

Jazz is a trademarked brand of the Scifresh cultivar of domesticated apple.[1] Scifresh is a cross between Royal Gala and Braeburn. It was developed in New Zealand as part of a collaboration between apple marketer ENZA, orchardists, and the Plant & Food Research institute. The original cross was made in 1985 on trees at Goddard Lane, Havelock North, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand.[2][3] It launched commercially in April 2004. It is hard and crisp but juicy. The colour is flushes of red and maroon over shades of green, yellow and orange.[4] Jazz is a close relative of the Kanzi apple, which is easier to bite and has a more delicate sweet-tart taste.[5]
