What are Ajwa dates?
A small, dark, soft date grown around Al Madinah in Saudi Arabia, prized for its fine texture and gentle, not-too-sweet flavour. It is the variety most often chosen for Ramadan and for gifts.
Why are Ajwa dates eaten in sevens?
Eating seven Ajwa dates in the morning is a long-standing tradition in Madinah and across the Muslim world.
Do the dates have stones?
Yes – these are whole dates with the stone in, as traditionally served. Please take care when eating and keep them away from small children.
Which size should I choose?
The 400g box suits one household or a small gathering; the 600g box is the better buy for Ramadan, Eid and sharing with guests.
