Our
Story.
Our story begins at the University of Minnesota, where expert apple breeders—using time-honored horticultural techniques—struck gold by marrying the Honeycrisp and Zestar varieties. The offspring of this happy couple is Minneiska, the tree that gives us the SweeTango apple.
Soon after came the creation of the Next Big Thing cooperative, a group of the best apple growers selected to cultivate SweeTango. Only these select members can grow SweeTangos so we can maintain top quality and ensure that SweeTango is the best apple around, year after year.
Introduced in 2009, SweeTango has earned raves for its standout flavor and texture. SweeTango, a seasonal apple harvested in early fall, is available during apple season across the United States and Canada.
When SweeTango season hits this fall, don't miss your chance to stock up on this unbelievable apple.
