Honeycrisp apples are by far my favorites. Back when I lived in Minnesota, we would often go to the orchards to buy them directly ($$$) but also could find them in the grocery store ($$).

I learned recently that they are grown in France and sold under the name Honey Crunch. I went on a quest to find them and in my excitement bought almost a dozen... only to be disappointed by the flavor. They're not the wonderful Honeycrisps I know and love. Like wine, I suppose apples' flavor also changes depending on climate and soil. Wish I could get them from the US.
