Saw this variety on Sunday at the Central NY Tomatofest.

I've never seen this variety before and I must say I was impressed! It is very large and as the vendor said, one would only need a couple of apples to make a pie.
But is this a well guarded secret of the NY Apple growers? Or can it be elsewhere, albeit probably only in the Northeast?
I shoulda bought some, but they were kinda pricey and I was concerned about spending $6 on an apple or two and having them confiscated at customs.
Mind you, they did let us through with our lonely tomato, lol.
