Are any of the niche apple actually good? Or are orchard apples simply overrated?

Not an orchard but Twin Springs farm stands - I know they're in Bethesda and likely other areas too have the best, crispiest apples. I love ginger gold the most. Spend way too much $$$ on apples in season.

Tried these this weekend. Nice crunch but nothing crazy.

The taste and texture of a pink lady are superior, it’s the best apple there is

Drive to Rockville farmers market on Saturdays (9 am - 1 pm) - you won't be disappointed by prices and selection. Scenic view orchard and Tuckers farm are the best

I love Gala apples - sweet and crisp, they hold up long term.

I used to be crazy for Granny Smith but haven’t had one in a long while. Should probably pick some up this season.
