About Apple Rankings
Apple Rankings is a web-based guide to apple varieties curated by comedian Brian Frange. The site categorizes apples into ranked quality groups and is designed for anyone who regularly consumes or cooks with apples, offering ranked reviews to help users select varieties that align with their taste preferences.
The guide covers dozens of common and specialty apple varieties, organizing them into clear quality tiers from top-rated options like SweeTango (scored 95) to the lowest-rated Arkansas Black (scored 17). Each listed variety includes a numerical taste score, brief tasting notes, and a playful, often humorous descriptive nickname. All rankings are subjective and reflect the curator's personal taste, with no formal agricultural or scientific testing cited for the scores.
