A medium sized bittersweet cider apple of either English or French origin. Rare in the United States. Late season. DNA tested in 2024 and confirmed correct. Accoring to research by Bernwode Fruit Trees nursery in Ludgershall, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom, this is an old variety "from Somserset, though the name suggests it might originally have been French...It was recorded in the report of the Apple and Pear Conference of 1934 for the first and only time, seemingly lost in this country since then...We rediscovered it at Grove Research Station, Tasmania, and it returned to Britain in 2005." SSE acquired scions from Bernwode Fruit Trees in 2014. SSE Accession # 132362
