Barbarie is a traditional French cider apple originating from Northern France. It has been cultivated for generations and remains an important heritage variety for traditional cider production.
The small to medium-sized apples are sweet, fairly rich in sugar and moderately tannic. Their juice contributes sweetness, body and gentle tannins without overpowering other varieties, making Barbarie particularly valuable in carefully balanced cider blends.
Harvest usually takes place in early October, while the fruit reaches optimum pressing maturity during November. It is an excellent choice for anyone wishing to recreate authentic French cider orchards using historic regional cultivars.
