Dufflin is an old variety of cider apple from the County of Cornwall, England. It was included in orchard trials by Long Ashton Research Station in 1957.[1]

Origins

In the 19th century they were known to be growing in the area around Kea near Truro.[2]

Characteristics

This variety has a high sugar content, adding sweetness to the bittersharp flavour. Due to these equalities, it has been prized for making and blending cider.[3] The trees are vigorous croppers and is also resistant to apple scab.[4] It has a heavy, russeted skin and soft flesh.[5]

In literature
