For me it's the Egremont Russet.

I prefer Gala or Cox apples, but my daughters prefer Granny Smith.

Rennet and Granny Smith for me. I usually like some acidic taste in my fruit.

I absolutely love my apples I cannot remember a day when I didn't eat an apple I make no apologies English apples are overated the best apples are New Zealand Jazz second it's a flip the coin Braeburn or Royal Gala, but on saying that English make the finest Cider and Thatchers Katy is the queen of Ciders.

I purchased some nice large sized loose ones today in Morrisons. Two weighed in at 500 grams for 77p. My son saw them and nabbed one so back again for more.

Russet, nothing else comes close. I just wish they were available all year.
Hiya,
Like most fruit, texture plays a big part in how much I like whatever it is. With apples they need to be very hard and crunchy. Even slightly mealy ones put me off.
Anyway, maybe 20 years ago a new apple came to market in very small batches since I think only one or two orchards had the trees at first. It's called the Honeycrisp.
"Explosive crunchiness" paired with plenty of sweetness, with a good clear apple taste. Nothing quite like these things and they have done real well here in Yankeetown. Prices are down to about $2 per pound now and man, they are tasty! I still have some Honeycrisp cider from the farmers market last week.
When these apples are fresh it's extremely tough to push in with your thumb and leave a mark. Very hard and loud to chew in a good way. Great mouth feel......very juicy variety
Probably the most fun to eat apple I have tried,
