Texture: Extra soft, creamy, melts on the tongue
Taste: Rich and full-bodied, with raisin and plum notes and no bitterness

2. Saggai Rutab – textures that will surprise you
What it is: A two-tone date with a fascinating play of textures – a firmer outer layer with warm brown-sugar notes and a soft, moist inside

4. Sukkari Mufattal – golden versatility

Product origin: The heart of Arab tradition in the Al-Qassim oases
This curated collection brings the best of central Saudi Arabia. The Al-Qassim region, known worldwide as the “garden of dates,” is home to more than 8 million palm trees. From here come three exceptional varieties we combined into one pack: royal Medjool with a silky taste, golden Sukkari Mufattal with a gentle structure, and rare Saggai with a fascinating contrast of textures. All are grown with deep respect for tradition, not as mass-market commercial product.
Why is the Al-Qassim selection so unique?
• Three characters, one microclimate: A unique mix of hot desert sun and rich underground springs creates conditions you won’t find elsewhere. That’s why each variety has its own profile – from Medjool’s deep sweetness through melt-in-your-mouth Sukkari to Saggai’s elegant fruity notes.
• Generational heritage & hand work: These dates come from family farms where cultivation is a craft passed down for centuries. Every piece is the result of patient care, hand harvesting, and strict selection – ensuring a clean taste with no hint of “burnt sugar” bitterness.
• Home of the world’s biggest date festival: Al-Qassim hosts the famous Buraidah Date Festival, the largest event of its kind worldwide. This mix includes varieties most valued by local connoisseurs at prestigious auctions for their authenticity and outstanding quality.
• Pure freshness without chemicals: Dates are harvested at optimal ripeness and stored to preserve natural juiciness and nutritional value. No chemical treatment and no syrup glazing – their shine and honeyed taste are a pure gift of nature.
This collection is ideal for anyone who wants to experience the flavours of Arab oases in one pack – or gift something truly special to lovers of authentic Middle Eastern delicacies.
Important notice: pit and safety
• Natural with pit: 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 easily with fingers or a gentle cut.
• Children & safety: When serving dates to children, please use extra caution. Always remove the pit before eating. For small children, it’s safest to cut the date lengthwise, check the pit is gone, and then slice into smaller pieces.
Storage & shelf life: how to keep freshness without chemicals
Our dates are 100% natural – with no chemical treatment or preservatives. To keep the best taste and texture, we recommend:
• After delivery: Transfer dates into an airtight container and place them in the refrigerator.
• Optimal freshness in the fridge: In an airtight container at +5 to +7 °C, they stay in perfect condition for at least 3 months.
• Odour protection: Dates easily absorb surrounding aromas – a sealed container is essential to preserve their natural fragrance.
• Long-term storage (up to 1 year): You can safely freeze them. At -18 to -20 °C, they remain in ideal condition for 12 months. Low temperature is the most natural preservation method without additives.
• Serving culture: For everyday use, serve dates in a beautiful glass jar with a lid. It looks elegant and the lid reduces moisture loss, keeping every bite juicy.
