History of the Gala variety

Originally from sunny New Zealand, this variety got its name “Gala” - as bright and solemn as its taste. The Gala variety owes its appearance to the painstaking work of breeders who, in the mid-20th century in New Zealand, combined two bright varieties - Golden Delicious and Kidd's Orange Red. The result of this union was an apple that conquered the world with its harmony and ability to be close to everyone.

In Lebedyan, the “Gala” variety found its second home. Here, under the generous sun and in the gentle climate, he feels at his best. Unpretentious and generous, he gives us a harvest of neat, elegant apples, as if painted with an artist’s brush. They are the fruit of the harmony of nature and our care.
