Cox's Orange Pippin

Classic English apple

Cox's Orange Pippin is a variety of apple prized for its complex, aromatic flavor—sweet with hints of honey and citrus.

Developed in early 19th-century England, it remains a benchmark for dessert apples, especially in British orchards.

The skin is orange-red over yellow-green.

It's finicky to grow but beloved by apple connoisseurs: Nothing beats a Cox's Orange Pippin fresh from the tree.
