Developed by the East Malling Research Station, Kent and introduced in 1997. Bred with disease resistance in mind from an unnamed disease resistant variety and a sport of Golden Delicious. The result are smooth medium sized conical apples flushed mostly dark red. When eaten the apples are juicy and sweet with some acidity. A nice traditional apple taste.
