Adams Pearmain is an old dessert apple, with a crisp and juicy texture and was introduced to the Horticultural Society of London in 1826 by Robert Adams, under the name 'Norfolk Pippin'. The flavour is on the dry sharp side, with a blend of subtly sweet, nutty flavours that go very well with cheese.The juice has a nice pink tinge to it. The yellow skin flushes with a deep, russet flecked red as they ripen and is quite tough. The fruit hangs well on the branches until picked (this tree is also called Hanging Pearmain).
