Not all agricultural producers are stuck in the same variety rut.&nbsp; Stemilt Growers is introducing a new variety of apple:  <a href=\"http:\/\/stemilt.com\/Pinata\/Pages\/default.aspx\">Pi\u00f1ata<\/a>. \n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2022 The PIN\u0303ATA!\u00ae apple originated in the 1970&#8217;s after researchers in Dresden- Pillnitz, Germany crossed the Golden Delicious, Cox&#8217;s Orange Pippin and the Duchess of Oldenburg varieties. The apple was released commercially throughout Europe in 1986.<br \/>\n\u2022 In 2004, Stemilt Growers&#8211;a leading tree fruit company based in Wenatchee, Washington&#8211;trademarked the name Pin\u0303ata. Stemilt holds the exclusive rights to grow and market this variety in the United States.<br \/>\n\u2022 Under its former names (Pinova and Sonata), Pin\u0303ata was deemed &#8220;Apple of the Year&#8221; in Germany in 2001. In 2004, Stemilt renamed the variety Pin\u0303ata, in order to tie-in the apple&#8217;s given names with its exciting attributes.<br \/>\n\u2022 Pin\u0303ata apples are stripy red over an orange background. A blend of high sugar and high acid levels give Pin\u0303ata a special flavor. Crisp and juicy, Pin\u0303ata has a classic apple flavor with a unique tropical twist.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\nThe Pi\u00f1ata reminds me of a Pink Lady, one of my favorite varieties of apples, and my children really loved them.  They are tangy and sweet, they are quite beautiful in appearance. They are available under the <a href=\"http:\/\/stemilt.com\/ourdifference\/Pages\/OrganicLeader.aspx\">Artisan Organics<\/a> label. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Personally, I am annoyed that heirloom varieties would carry a registered trademark. These varieties belong to the people of the world, not agricultural companies.&nbsp; It shouldn&#8217;t need legal protection or have exclusive rights.<\/p>\n<p>Disclosure: I was sent free samples of these products to review.
