Jonagold
Sweet Meets Zing.
Juicy joy with a golden twist, and apple with bold flavor and sweet crunch.
Description
The Jonagold apple is a sweet and spicy variety created by crossing the classic Jonathan and Golden Delicious apples. Michigan’s northern climate helps Jonagold thrive, resulting in large fruit with golden-yellow undertones and an orange-red, often spotted, finish.
Developed in New York in the 1940s, Jonagold apples have become an American staple—especially prized for baking due to their perfect balance of sweetness and tartness.
