Variety Izyumskyi Muscat

Izyumskyi Muscat is a kishmish (seedless) hybrid form bred by Oleh Shchennikov (Kesha × Jupiter USA). It ripens very early: in 95–100 days, and in southern Ukraine the first clusters are picked from the last ten days of July. The cluster weighs 500–800 g or more on average, is dense or of medium density, and is transportable. The berries are dark blue, almost black, 5–7 g each, with firm juicy flesh. The taste is very high: a distinct Muscat aroma with caramel notes.

The bush is vigorous, the vine ripens well, the flower is hermaphroditic, and the bush carries a load very well — up to three clusters per shoot. Frost resistance is about −26…−27 °C, and cover for winter is usually not needed. According to the source, disease resistance is still being studied, so do not skip protective treatments.
