Koru
Malus domestica 'Plumac' · Pome fruit
Top 10 pairings
Koru is the trademark for the cultivar Plumac, a New Zealand chance seedling of Braeburn and Fuji parentage that is firm, crisp and notably sweet, with a honeyed, almost tropical flavour over a clean low acidity. Its skin carries a warm red-and-orange flush striped and blushed over a yellow ground, and the cream flesh is slow to brown once cut.
