In the interior of the peninsula of the current Valencian Community, which in its day belonged to the ancient kingdoms of Castile and Aragon; we find on the banks of the river Turia, a valley in its plain. Sunny, reddish and fertile, this land nurtures many farmers. And it is this climate that contrasts with its mountainous perimeter, which favors the cultivation of these apples, recognized for their aroma, texture and taste.
Although it finds its origin elsewhere, the Esperiega apple variety has been indigenous to the Ademúz region for more than a century. They say that in 1903, in the Guerrero area, the first tree could grow from a seed that was swept away by a flood. Since then, the region was in great demand in the markets of Valencia and dedicated a large part of its garden to this apple.
