1811. urtean kosk egin zioten lehen aldiz McIntosh bati. Lehen sagarrondo hark 1908an eman zuen azken uzta, eta 1910ean hil zen. 2011n, lehen hartatik txertatutako ondorengo zuzen baten aldaxkak jaso eta arbola berriak sortu zituzten.

The McIntosh apple is mostly seen in computers, tablets, sepals and advertising. His logo marks very well what it is, the author got it right; it's an apple he lacks, as if someone had bitten him. And that's that McIntosha is a delicacy.

It's a Canadian national apple, because it's from there. Jonh McIntosh (1777-1846), son of immigrant Scottish parents, was born in New York, and around 1800 bought a series of work from the village of Matilda in the province of Ontario in Canada. While cleaning the apartment, he discovered apples (Malus domestica), known as vaccines or crutches, produced from the seed. Since these apples have emerged from the seed, we do not know what size they will have, what form, what type of foliage, when they will flourish, what type of fruit they will give, when they will arrive... Since the father and mother who have mixed up to form the seed are not known, one cannot imagine the plant that will produce the seed. The plants found were transplanted at the notch, planted in the apples and, after a few years, one of them began to produce beautiful red apples: a grain of beautiful size, resembling a circle, a thin, shiny skin almost entirely red on the green, an erect, rotated, saline pulp and which comes to the end of September. Since then, it's known as McIntosh. Just as most apples in our country have the name of a house or a surname: Txalaka, Saltxipi, Ugarte

In 1811 a McIntosh was bitten for the first time. Later, they were vaccinated to increase and in 1835 they began to sell apples. The descendants of the family continued to sell and sell apples, and from 1870 began the commercial production of this apple. At the beginning of the 20th century, it was one of the most renowned apples in Canada and the United States, to use them in the kitchen as if it ate crude.

McIntosh revolutionized the apple world. It was the most used in the last century among the different mothers who elaborated new varieties of apples and were used by creators for insertion in the world.

This first apple tree gave its last harvest in 1908 and died in 1910. In 2011, the cuttings of a direct descendant inserted from that first were collected and new trees were created. Three of them live, and if you want to greet them carelessly, you have to go to Upper Canada Village Heritage Park. Give me kissing for me.
