Date Chewy Selection

Our date Chewy Selection is a date bundle consisting of four date varieties that are assigned to the “Chewy” category. This means for all those who like their dates a little more firm to the bite. The package contains the following date varieties: Mabroom, Ajwa, Safawi and Khidri.

 

For Safawi, Ajwa, Khidri and Mabroom dates, please note the following:

Since these varieties belong to the “hard/solid” dates, they taste best when eaten at room temperature and not directly from the refrigerator, otherwise they are too hard.

 

Here is a brief overview of the date varieties included:

Mabroom dates are deliciously sweet and sticky, with light red-bronze skin and a lingering toffee-like taste on the palate. They have a smooth and pleasant flavor but are much firmer than other date varieties. Some may even find them quite hard to chew. We think that candy-like texture is exactly what makes Mabroom special. Plus, they contain multiple natural fibres and minerals which contribute to a healthy body and mind. Mabroom taste different than other date varieties and you will be surprised by their distinctive flavor.

Ajwa dates are a special variety from the Medina region of Saudi Arabia. They have a unique round shape and a deep red, almost black color. Not only do they differ from other dates in their strong flavor and fine texture, they are also much drier and tougher than other varieties, yet soft with a silky sweetness that makes them almost melt in your mouth. Ajwa dates are prized for their health-giving properties, containing many of the same healthy nutrients found in our other dates.

Safawi dates have a beautiful dark brown colour. They are rather firm and have a fine taste that is slightly reminiscent of coffee. Their aftertaste is not as sweet as other types of dates, so you can nibble a lot without any problems.

Khidri, the “big, dark and mysterious” dates, are known for their uniform chestnut red color. This variety has a thin-leafed skin and sweet, somewhat chewy flesh reminiscent of raisins. Khidri have a warm, intense aftertaste.

 


How should dates be stored and what temperature do they taste best at?
