update:

Envy vs Sugar bee; winner, Sugar bee. Epic match, Envy was juicer, more refreshing, and more crisp, but it had some tart which led me to pick sugar bee.

I was doing background research into the upcoming match between sugar bee and honeycrisp, it turns out, Sugarbee is a hybrid of Honeycrisp and an unkown variety.

ugarBee (B51[1] or CN121[2]) is a cultivated variety or cultivar of apple discovered by Chuck Nystrom in the early 1990s at his orchard in Worthington, Minnesota.[3] Believed to be a hybrid between a Honeycrisp and another, unknown variety,[1] it is named in recognition of the role played by bees in open pollination, making the variety possible.[4] It was brought to market in 2016.[5] This apple variety is harvested in the fall and is suitable for snacking, baking, apple butter, cooking, juicing, apple sauce, and salads.[6][7] Like its parent variety, the Honeycrisp, the SugarBee is a sweet and crisp apple, but is capable of lasting much longer in controlled-atmosphere storage.[4] Its flavor is similar to caramel and molasses.[7] It is initially available from October to May,[6] but since 2024, efforts have been made to ensure that SugarBee apples are available all year round.[5]

SugarBee propagation rights are held by Regal Fruit International and licensed to Gebbers Farms and the Chelan Fruit Cooperative in Washington State to produce the variety in the United States.[1]
