Autumn Glory apple momentum continues to build as the apple breaks into the top 20 U.S. apple varieties for November. Ranking No. 18, Autumn Glory saw 280 percent growth versus last November, enjoying the most growth of all apple varieties, based on percentage, according to IRI scan data ending Dec. 3.

For the 2017-18 season, the apple is available through April for conventional and February for organic. As volume and acreage continues to grow, Autumn Glory will become a year-round apple variety.

Superfresh Growers holds the exclusive worldwide rights to grow and market the Autumn Glory apple, which has a sweet, firm flesh and is known for subtle notes of caramel and cinnamon.

As demand rises for the Autumn Glory apple consumer feedback continues to back up the data, and social media has continued to be a hot spot of sharing nationwide passion for Autumn Glory. Blogger Lauren Pariseau said, “Firm texture, skin that snaps, and a noisy-in-a-good-way bite is a solid start to winning over New England apple lovers. But the smell and the taste, oh man you guys, pull up a chair and break out your scratch and sniff screens.”
