Montague, after a challenging summer growing season, Australian family-owned fresh produce company, Montague, is thrilled to be delivering the first autumn harvest of JAZZ™ to retailers nationally from this week.
“This crop of JAZZ™ apples is one of the best ever produced with a fine skin, sweet flavour, dense and crunchy white flesh”, said Scott Montague, third generation apple producer and Managing Director at Montague who are the exclusive national distributors of JAZZ™ apples. “This is an apple that looks fantastic, stores well, provides a longer shelf-life and a crunchy, consistent eating experience”.
JAZZ™ is a natural fusion of the Royal Gala and Braeburn varieties. Because of the firmness of the fruit it offers a crunch that has made JAZZ™ one of the most popular Australian apples. JAZZ™ is a compact shape with the subtle sweetness of a Royal Gala combined with the fresh tangy flavour of a Braeburn creating a refreshing taste sensation.
JAZZ ™ apples are sourced from over 500,000 trees grown throughout Australia by licensed growers in Batlow (NSW), Tamar & Huon Valley (TAS), Adelaide Hills (SA), Stanthorpe (QLD), Manjimup (WA), and Southern Victoria where the orchards enjoy summer sunshine, high rainfall and rich soil.
Look out for the distinctive blue label on every delicious JAZZ™ apple.
The 2020 JAZZ™ autumn harvest will be available to all Australians from the following retailers Woolworths, Coles, Costco, quality independent stores, green grocers and markets from 7th April 2020 until November or until the harvest sells out.
