Organic date tasting package no.2

Our date package No. 2 contains four fine date varieties from Saudi Arabia. While people here in Germany are particularly familiar with the meaty-sweet Medjool from Israel or the small, nutty Deglet Nour from North African date cultivation, Saudi fruits are rarely found. In this trial package, we have put together a selection of dates whose tastes range from spicy and aromatic to raisin-sweet to mild and cinnamon: the Ajwa, with its deep black skin, is the most striking variety of the date quartet. It also stands out from the others in terms of taste, because it is hardly sweet and has a very aromatic flavor. The wanan, also dark, but somewhat larger and meatier, has a pleasantly mild taste and has delicate notes of cinnamon and cocoa. The khidri shines with a chestnut color and its soft flesh is reminiscent of raisins in taste. The kholas, the fourth date in the group, tastes similar to caramel-sweet toffee or fudge. All of our dates come from controlled organic cultivation. It is particularly important to us to think holistically and sustainably! It is very important to us to maintain personal contact with our farmers, to support consistently fair working conditions, to promote good with our actions and to make a positive contribution to the future. The following dates are included in the trial package: ≈ 100g Ajwa organic dates ≈ 100g Khidri organic dates ≈ 100g Kholas organic dates ≈ 100g Wanan organic dates All four varieties are fresh to semi-dry dates. That is, they were harvested at the time of first ripening and packed straight away. Due to the higher moisture content, fresh dates must be kept refrigerated. This ensures that the dates have a long shelf life and do not dry out. Four degrees in the refrigerator are ideal. The particularly fleshy, juicy pulp of fresh dates is the ultimate pleasure and a luxury of our time, because traditionally fresh dates were only available for a very short time immediately after harvest.
