Autumn Crisp is medium to large in size. It has a yellow-green skin with a slight blush and some russeting, which is a brownish, rough-textured skin. The flesh of the apple is crisp and juicy, with a sweet flavor and a slightly tart finish.
One of the key characteristics of the Autumn Crisp apple is its long shelf life. The fruit can be stored for up to six months without losing its crispness or flavor, making it a popular choice for growers and retailers. The Autumn Crisp apple is also known for its disease resistance. It is resistant to apple scab.
