Sweet Alford

Sweet Alford is a heritage cider apple from Devon, England — small, pale yellow fruit flushed with pink, producing juice with high natural sugar content that makes it well-suited for single-variety cider production. Primarily a cider variety, though the sweet flavour means it can be eaten fresh. A genuine heritage West Country cider apple. Partially self-fertile. Mid-season. A good choice for home cider enthusiasts wanting traditional Devon character. Available at Wairere Nursery.
