From the linked article: "Braeburn is a variety of apple that is simultaneously sweet and tart."

I was always confused that it's not an apple of Scottish origin - "Brae" is scots for "hill", and "burn" is scots for "little river"

It was first cultivated at an orchard in NZ called Braeburn which is almost certainly named after a Scottish person or place. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braeburn
