Vintage Virginia Apples
...from the rich orchard heritage of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains
Tinsley Quince
TINSLEY QUINCE was found early in 1900 near Crawley in
Sussex, England. It is medium to large in size, and rectangular in shape,
with prominent ribbing at the eye, and slightly on the body. The whitish-yellow
skin has some russet dots and russet patches near the base. It is greasy
to the touch. The yellow flesh with a slight quince flavor surrounds
a noticeably light-yellow and sometimes, white core. Tinsley Quince
is exceptional as a frying apple because of its distinctive taste. The
fruit ripens in late September.
