Issued by the Saudi authorities under the supervision of a renowned independent German accreditation body, this label guarantees cultivation with minimal chemical use. These dates are non-GMO and free from additives. Like all our references, they contain no added sugar.
We currently offer the Sukary and Medjool varieties in organic version. Grown in the Nejd region of Saudi Arabia, these dates are often considered the star of dates since their introduction to Europe. They feature a pronounced caramel flavor, thick and smooth flesh, making them true delicacies with exceptional nutritional qualities. Their color ranges from light to dark brown, with a wrinkled skin.

Medjool dates are often present at festive events and can also be given as gifts, especially when filled with dried fruits or almond paste.
The Organic Medjool and Sukary dates at Tayiba are harvested before full ripening. They are therefore “routab” dates, meaning “wet,” which ensures a uniquely soft and tender texture.
They come from an exceptional terroir that gives them a unique flavor, not found in any other Medjool currently on the market. All this is achieved under strict control to obtain European organic certification for these crops.

Expert Advice

How to Choose

The color of Sukary dates ranges from ochre yellow to burgundy red. Their flesh is soft, smooth, and moist, with a whitish interior. Natural sugar may appear on the surface as juice or crystals. This is a natural phenomenon and does not indicate any deterioration of the date. A good dried Medjool date should feel firm to the touch while remaining tender, with a uniform golden-brown color.

Tasting Ideas

In summer, Sukary dates are delightful when paired with watermelon chunks. In winter, you can replace the pit with half a walnut to add nutritional value and a delicious flavor twist. Medjool dates pair perfectly with soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert, creating a sweet and creamy flavor combination. They can also be stuffed with nuts or almonds for an energizing and tasty snack.

Storage

Our fresh Sukary dates can be kept for several months in the refrigerator. They can then be enjoyed at room temperature for a few days or stored chilled like candied chestnuts. In summer, keep them cool to prevent spoilage from excessive heat. A fermented or moldy smell indicates deterioration. Sukary Routab dates naturally darken over time. For dried Medjool dates, store them at room temperature in an airtight container to preserve their texture. These dates are particularly resilient and can be kept for several months without any issue.
