Zuzoff is a Russian apple listed in A Study of Northwestern Apples as entry No. 585. It was also included among ten commission adopted varieties receiving special attention for northwestern conditions [S1].
The fruit is described as large and heavy, roundish oblate, regular or faintly angular. Its skin is smooth and glossy, greenish yellow, and almost or wholly covered with a dark brownish red color, without stripes or splashes [S1].
The flesh is white to greenish white with greenish tinge or veinings, juicy, firm, fine grained, subacid, and rated good. The source classifies Zuzoff as a winter apple [S1].
The account notes that Anisim was at one time confused with Zuzoff, but says the two are very distinct [S1].
