"These grapes are called Witches fingers and
are from the Californian breeding program International Fruit Genetics.
Although it sounds like it could be GMO it’s not, they are made through
the hybridisation process of taking pollen from one plant and brushing
it onto another plant.
There are quite a number of these varieties now, in different colours as well. Whats really interesting is that IFG also have a few other unusual varieties such as ‘cotton candy’ which when ripe acquires the taste of cotton candy – it’s very unusual but also delicious. You guys in the US should see the variety on the shelves in the next few weeks actually."
