I bought two kinds of apples (after I just bought a case of Fuji from

Central Market) at the U district farmers' market last week. Both are

very good. One is Spitzenburg from the Grouse farm, brix about 15. They

are kind of ugly this year but the flavor is still good. They are not

sugar sweet like fuji but have a rich flavor. The Spitzenburg is Thomas

Jefferson's favorite apple. The other one I bought was Estar from the

Cliffside. This variety is not so well-known here but is a European

favorite. My first bite felt sour but it seemed to turn sweet

afterwards. The sample I took brixed a little over 16. They have a more

delicate texture than Fuji.
