Sue and I did a dream tasting tonight for our appetizer

Believe it or not, I've not tried Orange Minsk. I do like KBX and from memory find it one of the few pale orange varieties I really like - I find most of that color (Dr Wyche's Yellow, Kellogg's Breakfast - which is more dark in hue, Orange Heirloom) to be a bit too mild for my palate - but love Yellow Brandywine, Aunt Gertie's Gold, KBX and Elbe - in fact, I find these four to be very similar varieties in terms of the bright, tart character which makes them much more lively on the palate than the three I noted in parentheses. I guess I will have to try Orange Minsk next year!
