| Origin |  Belgium |
The Kanzi is the trademark name[1] of the 'Nicoter'[2] modern bred cultivar of domesticated apple which has been developed in Belgium by "Better3Fruits" and "Greenstar Kanzi Europe" (GKE)[3] from a natural cross between a Gala apple and a Braeburn apple.[4] Kanzi is Swahili for "hidden treasure".[3]
The Kanzi apple has the same parentage as the Jazz from New Zealand and they are similar in taste and appearance. The texture of Jazz is harder.[3] Tasters have voted for the Kanzi in preference to the Jazz.[3] Kanzi is still also firm and fairly crisp, quite juicy, slightly sharp rather than sweet in taste, with a pleasant and mild flavor.[3] It is mainly used for fresh consumption.[5]
Kanzi first reached the European markets in 2006[5] and is already grown in the United States by a select group of farmers.[6] A limited crop first reached the US markets in 2014.[7]
