Guernsey apple

Guernsey apple

The term "Rocquette apple" can refer to two distinct things: a type of apple with pink-fleshed fruit called Rosette, and the Rocquette Cider produced in Guernsey. Rosette apples are known for their sweet-sharp flavour and attractive pink juice. Rocquette Cider is a product of Rocquette Cider farm, which also offers tours, tastings, and even has a "Wassail" event, which is a traditional orchard blessing ceremony.
