Their production exists nowhere else! They are among the most renowned date varieties in the world.
They are very famous in Eastern medicine, where they have the reputation of acting as an antidote against diseases when enjoyed every morning. They are indeed packed with nutrients and antioxidants that fight many pathologies and daily ailments.
Their flesh has a thick, fruity, and naturally sweet texture, reminiscent of caramel flavors with a slight licorice aftertaste. Ajwa dates have a predominantly black or even very dark burgundy color.

Tayiba Ajwa - تمر العجوة
TAYIBA stands out by offering Ajwa dates in both fresh ('routab') or firm ('tamr') versions, with a choice of medium or large sizes. The latter results from a selective choice to offer you a large size of the best qualities.
When fresh, these dates are melting and creamy. Since they are moist, their skin is wrinkled and cracks slightly under the tooth. The firm version is very nutritious, rich in fiber, and provides all the necessary intake to start the day well.
It is an ancestrally known food for being the perfect breakfast ally.
