206g @ $4.50/kg = $0.93

Crispiness: C

Juiciness: B

Sweet vs Sour: strangely, I detect no sour. Mildly sweet. But very mild

Colour: of a sunburnt Irish individual

Verdict: the lack of cronch defeats 90% of the point of an apple. This is a sad apple. I look forward to eating this when I'm 80 and my teeth are bad

(C) tier apple. It's ... okay.

Edit - this one garnered some local controversy and was re-reviewed, as below.

Crispness: C+

Juiciness: B-

Sweet vs Sour: This was slightly sour

Colour - Shepherd’s delight.

Verdict - Mildly better crispness. This time, actually somewhat sour. If you like a very demure and very mindful apple, then this is the apple is for you. As one who likes to be smacked in the face with clarity, this one is not for me, but an acceptable offering.

(C) tier. It's an okay apple
