Ripened in the clarity and strength of New Zealand sunlight

Our sunshine is one of the most potent in the world, with very high levels of ultra-violet light.
With a lot less pollution in the southern hemisphere to block the sun's rays, Breeze™ apples are ripened by the purest light.

Red Skin

Ever wondered why some apples are red?

When apple trees are exposed to high levels of UV, they protect their fruit by making extra polyphenols, which are visible as the red colouring of the skin.

Remember to always eat your apples unpeeled, because much of the health benefits come from the skin.

Thousands of Polyphenols
in every apple

Polyphenols are naturally-occurring antioxidants that help to combat cell damage – from a health standpoint, the more polyphenols the better.
Inside your body, polyphenols are beneficial in many ways, helping reduce the risk of asthma, assist lung function, support heart health, and even help decrease the risk of diabetes.
