Apple with an out-of-the-way reddish colour (6)
I believe the answer is:
russet
This clue could be a double definition.
'apple' is the first definition.
(a russet-coloured apple)
'an out-of-the-way reddish colour' is the second definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for russet that I've seen before include "Reddish-brown - type of apple" , "Dessert apple" , "Brown with a reddish tinge" , "Brownish-red apple" , "Surest type of colour" .)
