Apple ‘Dabinett’ (Cider)

‘Dabinett’ is a cider apple variety with a bittersweet flavour, capable of producing a balanced, medium-dry cider on its own. The fruit is yellowish-green, variably flushed and striped with red and often with russet streaks. It is reasonably self-fertile but will fruit better with a pollinator such as ‘Golden Hornet’, ‘Brown’s Apple’ or ‘Comtesse de Paris’. A very late cropper (November), it nevertheless starts to crop at a relatively young age.
