{"product_id":"apples-crimson-crisp-1","title":"Apples - Crimson Crisp","description":"\u003cp\u003eCrimsonCrisp® apples are a small to medium-sized varietal, averaging 6 to 7 centimeters in diameter, sometimes growing larger, depending on cultivation methods and climate. The apples bear a uniform, round, oblate, to slightly conical shape with broad, flat shoulders tapering to a narrow base. The skin is semi-thick, chewy, smooth, and taut with a faint sheen and light ribbing, and tiny, pale lenticels are scattered across the surface. The apple's skin has a golden yellow base when ripe, almost entirely covered in a bright to dark red-purple blush. The saturation and depth of blush coloring will vary on each apple, determined by sun exposure, and some apples may appear a solid, dark red. Underneath the surface, the ivory to pale yellow flesh is hard, dense, moderately juicy, and semi-coarse with a firm and crisp consistency, breaking and snapping cleanly in large chunks. The flesh also encases a small central core filled with tiny dark brown, oval seeds. CrimsonCrisp® apples have balanced sugar and acidity levels, creating a rich, sweet, and tart flavor with spice-filled undertones and nuances of caramel, melons, and oranges. It is important to note that freshly harvested apples will have more acid, creating a tart and tangy taste. As the apples are left in prolonged storage, the acid will fade, and the fruits will become sweeter, eventually weakening in flavor. This apple stores well for at least four months.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mercier's Orchards","offers":[{"title":"priced by weight","offer_id":44186494730328,"sku":"156811H","price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 peck (approx. 10-12 lbs)","offer_id":44186494763096,"sku":"A332875","price":16.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/8747\/7080\/files\/original_85df5692-5745-484a-afaa-4c64dc51d9c1.jpg?v=1780614928","url":"https:\/\/common-ground-farm-2.myshopify.com\/products\/apples-crimson-crisp-1","provider":"Common Ground Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
