NARA Organic Sukkari Dates

Sukkari is a variety of dates originating from Saudi Arabia, highly appreciated for its delicate, almost fondant texture, and for its intense sweetness, with notes of golden caramel and honey.

Unlike other denser or drier dates, Sukkari are airy, fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth. They have a light, golden-yellow hue and an instantly recognizable taste – bright, round and generous. They are harvested when they reach the ideal point of ripeness, and to preserve their freshness and fragility, they are transported refrigerated until delivery. They are among the most popular fresh dates in Arab countries.

Saudi Arabia

Our partner farm in Saudi Arabia is located in the picturesque Al Ghat region, approximately 200 kilometers northwest of the vibrant capital Riyadh. Al Ghat offers ideal conditions for growing dates, with hot summers and mild winters.

The farm is a pioneer of organic farming in Saudi Arabia and was one of the first farms in the country to receive EU organic certification. Our Saudi farmer attaches great importance to environmental protection and the conservation of natural resources and has decided not to use chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

Many different varieties of dates are grown on the farm. We currently source 9 of our date varieties from this Saudi partner farm.

Thanks to their soluble fiber content, these dates aid in easy digestion, reduce cravings for processed sweets, and help balance blood sugar levels. They are a smart option for active women who want a sweet and healthy snack with real benefits for vitality and inner balance.

Sukkari dates are excellent as a snack between meals, served with a green tea or a delicate black coffee. You can use them to naturally sweeten smoothies, homemade granola or raw desserts. Their texture makes them ideal for fine fillings – with nuts, almonds or cashew butter. In salads with a mix of contrasting flavors, they bring a touch of mild sweetness that perfectly balances sour or salty ingredients.

For a simple and spectacular breakfast, try them on a slice of bread with ricotta and raw pollen. Or, simply enjoy them as is – nature’s delicate dessert.
