Elstar
The skin of the Elstar is usually a bit rust-coloured and the texture can be felt on the tongue. Inside, its pulp is medium firm and has a pleasant sweet-sour taste. Its ripe fruity notes are reminiscent of pears with hints of citrus fruits and honey. The aftertaste has a light green aroma.

, about the Elstar
Like the Gala in South Tyrol, the Elstar is a summer variety harvested very early in August. With its sweet-sour taste, Elstar is ideal for juice, strudel, apple sauce and as a dried fruit.
