Can anyone pin it down to an actual variety? and if you know one a supplier?

The Vranja Quince, (Cydonia oblonga as opposed to the pyrus cydonia)
is the most popular in the UK. Huge scented fruits (the Ludovic one is
similar to Vranja too in taste, scent and size). Have a look at this
link for lots of cultivars at the bottom of the article along with
suppliers (ignore the ones in the States, naturally ...).
