Passionately working hard all-year round to grow the perfect JAZZ™ apple so you always have a refreshing eating experience.
2017 marks a hundred years of the Tessier family tending their land in the Loire Valley. Romain Tessier is 5th generation and his extensive knowledge and passion for apple growing makes him really proud of growing JAZZ™ apples. The daily care and dedication in growing the best possible apples for consumers around the world to enjoy.
“I grow JAZZ™ apples because of their great eating qualities, their crunchiness and their huge storability.
The ‘fruit’ of our work is truly valuable. People love those apples. When I bring JAZZ™ apples to my relatives their reaction is always the same: once they have tried them, they would never have another basic apple for their own consumption.”
“I simply love orcharding and growing JAZZ apples – it’s my passion”
“It’s a wonderful environment to raise your children; being surrounded by a strong community of growers that support each other like family”
Yohann’s orchard is located in the West center of France 80 km in the south of Angers – the Loire Valley.
Growing apples for over 35 years, Yohann was so excited about JAZZ™ apples when he was introduced to them 15 years ago that he planted them straight away.
Seeing the vibrant bi-colour of the JAZZ™ apple sparkling on the tree just before harvest is a proud moment for Yahann.
The care and the dedication throughout the year that goes into growing a perfect JAZZ™ apple makes it all worth it though. A personal favourite, Yohann is proud of what he’s achieved with JAZZ™.
“When I show my Jazz orchard just before the harvest, people are always asking me “what is this apple with such a brilliant color?” and they haven’t taste it yet…”
