| Abstract:
Five hardy scab resistant selections (12166, 10625, 0-654, 13323, 14199) were put in replicated trials along with four standard cultivars (‘Yarlington Mill’, ‘Golden Russet’, ‘McIntosh Summerland’, ‘Makamik’) to evaluate their potational for cider production. A taste panel consisting of 6 certified commission judges evaluated the cider samples. The cider was evaluated for aroma and taste with an emphasis on flavour and taste-related components e.g. fruit intensity, appeal, acid and tannin levels. Of all the genotypes tested, ciders made from ‘Yarlington Mill’, ‘12166’, and ‘10625’ were ranked the best followed by ‘Golden Russet’ and ‘McIntosh Summerland’. | |
