Irish Apples
Not a ton of substance here, unfortunately, but I'm a sucker for any story with lots of old apple names:
Irish Peach has a crisp flavor (BBC)
I'm kind of bummed that 'Irish Peach' gets no mention outside of the title and a caption. C'mon...don't toy with us like that.
I think about England a lot when it comes to apples...somehow Ireland kind of gets forgotten.

The rest of the summer apples to ripen and one of the best flavoured of the Irish varieties. One of four Irish desert apples from the Crofton Estate in Sligo, possibly dating back to the reign of Elizabeth 1. This smallish green/yellow flushed with carmine striped crisp fruit was much planted in the UK in the 1900s and is a pure tip-bearer of moderate vigour with a spreading habit. The fruit is best eaten straight from the tree when it has a crisp juicy texture and an aromatic/rich vinous flavour. This variety has little commercial potential as it quickly becomes soft and dry. The main problem is scab, which can affect the fruit badly with leaves and buds also getting scab to a lesser extent.
