CMI Announces The Arrival Of The 2012 Super Sweet KIKU Apple Crop

Wenatchee, WA – CMI, one of Washington State’s largest grower/shipper of premium quality conventional and organic apples, pears and cherries, announces the arrival of the Super Sweet KIKU® Apple crop.

In 1990 Luis Braun, an Italian fruit grower, was traveling through Japan when he discovered a branch in an orchard with apples with an attractive coloring and a particularly sweet and pleasant taste. This unique branch that Mother Nature graced us with lead to the development of the KIKU® apple in Italy. Now KIKU® apples are proudly grown in the U.S.A. by a select group of some of the finest farmers around.

The KIKU® apple is very exotic, with a super sweet taste, attractive ruby-red color, crunchy with firm flesh, and very juicy. KIKU® apples stand out from the crowd; they look good and have a striped, ruby-red coloring over a large amount of the fruit. These features all have a positive effect on your senses as you enjoy a KIKU® apple. The KIKU® apple is great as snacks, salads and cooking.

For a limited time enjoy KIKU® and experience true “Fresh Apple Emotion”!
