Montague Farms has announced the return of the highly anticipated SweeTango apple season for 2025. Thanks to an early harvest, the fan favourite is available now through late March at selected Woolworths, Costco, and independent greengrocers.
SweeTango is known for its uniquely light texture, refreshing, zesty flavour, and record-breaking crunch. In fact, its texture has earned it the Guinness World Record title for the World’s Loudest Crunch.
A cross between the Honeycrisp and Zestar varieties, SweeTango delivers a juicy watermelon-like flavour with a touch of citrus, honey, and spice. Its extremely light texture and refreshing taste make it ideal for those looking to enjoy a healthy, summer-inspired snack.
“SweeTango is a truly unforgettable apple. Its short summer season makes you wish it was available year-round, but it also makes you savour each crispy bite even more.’” says Michelle Hau, spokesperson for Montague Farms.
Through years of research and development in orchards, SweeTango has, overtime, developed its own unique signature look: a pinkish blush over a yellow-breaking background dotted with small speckles.
The apples are hand-picked from the lush, rich soils of Australia’s top-growing regions, including the Yarra Valley, Gippsland, Harcourt, and Shepparton. These areas are known for their high rainfall, abundant summer sunshine, and ideal growing conditions. Montague Farms expects to harvest over 220,000 kilos of SweeTango this season.
SweeTango are available at selected Woolworths, Costco, and independent greengrocers across Australia. It’s also available at Montague Farms’ Bill’s Orchard Gate, where it’s the top-selling apple.
