Heirloom Sweet Maia apples are a unique variety resulting from a cross between Honeycrisp and Winecrisp apples. Their skin is a striking blend of deep red and orange, with a slight russeted finish that adds to their rustic appearance. The flesh is exceptionally crisp and juicy, combining the well-balanced sweetness of Honeycrisp with the rich, complex flavor of Winecrisp. These apples are perfect for fresh eating and baking, offering a unique taste that reflects their exceptional parentage. As an heirloom variety, Sweet Maia apples are a prized find, celebrated for their outstanding flavor and limited availability.
