Martin Schuster, apple farmer from Vetzan/Vezzano, about the Topaz
Topaz is a scab-resistant variety. For this reason, the apple is particularly popular in organic cultivation. Topaz has a more pointed acidity than the Granny Smith and is very easy to recognise visually due to its particularly flat shape.
