The Aport Apple

The Aport apple first came to the Alatau Mountains in Kazakhstan a long time ago, in the late 1800s. The special soil and high mountains there helped it change into the apple we know today.

These apples are quite big! They can weigh between 200 and 500 grams. That's like the weight of a small soda can or even a large one.

The skin of an Aport apple is a mix of light green and red colors. When you bite into it, the inside is crisp and not too soft. Aport apples are known for being sweet and tasty. They are ready to be picked in the fall season.

A Symbol of Almaty

The Aport apple is very important to the city of Almaty in Kazakhstan. It is a special symbol for the city.
