Arkansas Black as one of the bad apples?

Is this a joke?

I had one for the first time from our local co-op. It was definitely firmer than any other apple I’ve had but I wouldn’t call it “teeth-shattering” by any means.

Oh, but the flavor. Exquisite. Floral, fragrant. Tasted half like a really good apple, half like a perfectly ripe Bosc pear.

Do yourself a favor and find a ripe Arkansas Black apple. Best apple I ever had.
