From the founding of Jamestown to the time of Washington and Jefferson, every plantation owner made cider, drank cider, and bragged about his cider.
Fruit
ERWIN BAUR was raised at the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institut, Muncheberg Mark, Germany, in 1928, and was named in 1955. It is an open-pollinated seedling of Duchess of Oldenburg, and was named for the founder of the plant institute in Muncheberg. Medium in size, the deep-yellow skin is flushed, and streaked red-brown. The yellow flesh of this dessert apple is especially hard and crisp, with a light, sweet, aromatic flavor. It has the high flavor of the Cox's Orange Pippin and ripens in late September
