Yarlington Mill
A late mid season bittersweet cider apple.
Large fruit yellow with a pinkish flush, crisp and sweet with some astringency.
Ready late October to early November.
Found growing out of a wall at a mill at Yarlington, Somerset, by miller Edward Bartlet in the nineteenth century. Harry Masters went on to propagate the tree keeping the name Yarlington Mill.
It is now probably one of the most popular worldwide bittersweet cider apple trees and one the few late varieties with low acidity. Makes a great all round cider with good aroma and flavour.
