Premium Three-Variety Mix: Discover the True Diversity of Dates

(Medjool Rutab + Saggai Rutab + Sukkari Mufattal)

Who is this mix for?

• For the curious who only know standard supermarket dates and have no idea how huge the taste differences between varieties can be

• As a tasting set – the ideal way to compare three completely different profiles and find your favorite before buying a bigger pack

• As a luxury gift for lovers of gastronomy, coffee, or healthy food – an elegant and original alternative to the usual chocolates

• For those who can’t decide between several varieties and want to try them all at once

What does this mix offer?

Three completely different worlds in one pack – from royal juiciness, through a sophisticated play of textures, to golden everyday versatility.

1. Medjool Rutab – the “King of Dates” in its juiciest form

• What it is: Harvested at the Rutab stage (up to 45% moisture) – up to 3× juicier than typical store-bought Medjool
• Texture: Extra soft, creamy, melts on the tongue
• Taste: Rich and full, with notes of raisins and plums, without any burnt-sugar bitterness
• Why it’s special: Most global producers skip this stage due to demanding logistics – Rutab Medjool is extremely rare in Europe
• Ideal for: Those who want maximum juiciness and an intense experience

2. Saggai Rutab – Textures that will surprise you

• What it is: A two-tone fruit with a fascinating texture contrast – a firmer outer layer with warm brown-sugar notes and a soft, moist inside
• Uniqueness: Contrasting structure in a single bite – you start with caramel-like sweetness and finish with gentle softness
• Taste: Moderately sweet, sophisticated – a perfect match for espresso or Arabic coffee
• Why it’s special: In Saudi Arabia, a symbol of luxury at weddings and engagements; at special auctions it can reach prices up to 200 EUR/kg
• Ideal for: Gourmets who appreciate complexity and finesse over simple sweetness

3. Sukkari Mufattal – Golden everyday versatility

• What it is: The traditional “Mufattal” process (natural drying) creates a firmer structure than the soft Galaxy version
• Texture: Golden fruits that aren’t sticky, hold their shape, and are easy to work with – the first bite can feel like a soft confection
• Practicality: Doesn’t stick to fingers, easy to cut, perfect for stuffing or desserts
• Why it’s special: The ideal balance of juiciness and structure – for those who find typical soft dates too sticky
• Ideal for: Everyday snacking, cooking, and active lifestyles

Product origin: The heart of Arab tradition in the Al-Qassim oases

This curated collection brings you the best of central Saudi Arabia. The Al-Qassim region, world-famous as the “garden of dates,” is home to more than 8 million palm trees. This is where the three exceptional varieties in this mix come from: royal Medjool with its silky taste, golden Sukkari Mufattal with its gentle structure, and rare Saggai with its fascinating texture contrast. All are grown with the highest respect for tradition, not as a mass commercial product.

Why is a selection from Al-Qassim so unique?

• Three personalities, one microclimate: A specific combination of hot desert sun and rich underground springs creates conditions you won’t find elsewhere. Thanks to this, each variety in the mix has its own unique profile – from Medjool’s deep sweetness, through Sukkari’s gentle melt-in-the-mouth character, to Saggai’s refined fruity notes.

• Generations of craftsmanship and hand work: The dates come from family farms where cultivation has been passed down for centuries. Each fruit in this mix is the result of patient care, hand harvesting, and strict selection of the best pieces – ensuring a clean taste without any burnt-sugar bitterness.

• Home of the world’s largest date festival: Al-Qassim hosts the famous Buraidah Date Festival, the biggest event of its kind. This mix includes varieties that are among the most valued at these prestigious auctions for their authenticity and outstanding quality.

• Absolute freshness without chemicals: All three varieties are harvested at the optimal ripeness stage and stored to preserve natural juiciness and nutritional value. They are not chemically treated or syrup-polished – their shine and honey-like taste are a pure gift of nature.

This collection is the ideal choice for anyone who wants to experience the diversity of flavors from Arab oases in one pack, or as a special gift for lovers of truly authentic delicacies.

Important notice: Pit and safety

• Natural with pit: The dates are delivered in their authentic, unprocessed form, and each fruit contains one pit. Thanks to the soft, pliable flesh, the pit can be removed very easily with fingers or by a light cut.

• Children and safety: When serving dates to children, we recommend extra caution. Always remove the pit yourself before consumption. For small children, it’s safer to cut the fruit lengthwise to make sure the pit is gone, then slice into smaller bites.

Storage and shelf life: How to keep freshness without chemicals

Our dates are a purely natural product without any chemical treatment or preservatives. To keep their taste and ideal texture, follow these tips:

• After delivery: Once your parcel arrives, we recommend transferring the dates into an airtight container and placing them in the refrigerator.

• Optimal freshness in the fridge: After delivery, transfer the dates into an airtight container right away. In the refrigerator at +5 to +7 °C, they stay in perfect condition for at least 3 months.

• Odor protection: Dates easily absorb surrounding aromas. Keeping them in a closed container is crucial so they don’t pick up smells from other foods and keep their natural aroma.

• Long-term storage (up to 1 year): If you want to stock up for the whole year, you can safely freeze the dates. In the freezer at -18 to -20 °C, they remain in ideal condition for 12 months. Low temperature is the most natural preservation method, with no additives needed.

• Serving culture: For everyday use, it’s ideal to serve dates in a beautiful glass jar with a lid. It looks elegant, and the lid prevents natural moisture from evaporating, so every bite stays juicy and tasty.
