Had a few with breakfast, and I must say - this one is definitely a keeper.
Now I know what NANAMAN was talking about. Fantastic texture and taste.
Everybody --- you got to get you one of these SH 3640's!
Tastes better than most.
If Bioversity International is correct, the pedigree of SH-3640 it is a AAAB quadriploid with a pedigree of AAB Pome cv. Prata Ana x SH-3393.

I'm probably going to love it. So far the fruits I've tried of AAB cultivars are my favorites. I'm guessing the balbisiana influence gives it a bit more fruity taste.
