An apple a day - but which one takes out the inaugural Seven Sharp Apple Award?

April 5, 2018

Joined by a ‘motley crew’ of apple experts, Wells looks to settle the apple debate once and for all.

The best apple in New Zealand this season has been judged by a specialist panel of experts on Seven Sharp.

Up for selection were the Envy, Braeburn, Jazz and Pacific Rose.

Judging the apples were Chef Ben Bayley, Sensory Susan the Food Scientist, and Cameron Taylor, a fourth generation orchardist.

They checked out the apples for appearance, texture and flavour.

Host Jeremy Wells also took a bite.

According to a recent Colmar Brunton report, the apple is our most popular fruit.  

But with orchardists producing more and more varieties each year, it can be an overwhelming experience choosing the right variety at the fruit and vege section.
