Kala Kulu
کالا کولو
Kala Kulu is the apple Swat is known for and the one locals buy for themselves. The skin darkens to a deep, almost dusty red, the flesh is dense rather than watery, and it has an aroma most commercial apples have had bred out of them. It is not a cosmetically perfect apple — expect some russeting — and that is the trade you make for the flavour.
