The Tolman Sweet is a cultivar of apple with a butter yellow color, with faint russet dots [1] and a "suture line" along one side of the fruit from top to bottom.

The fruit is generally much esteemed for certain culinary purposes as pickling, boiling and baking.

In ordinary storage it is in season from November to January with December as the commercial limit.

In cold storage its commercial limit varies under different conditions from February to April.

The fruit hangs fairly well to the tree, is quite uniform in grade and suffers comparatively little loss in drops and culls.
