Specialized Details
Mazafati dates, scientifically known as Phoenix dactylifera, are a type of date palm fruit renowned for their exceptional quality and taste. These dates are often referred to as the “King of Dates” due to their large size, soft texture, and rich, caramel-like flavor.
Physical Characteristics:
The Mazafati Date is medium to large in size, typically measuring around 1.4 to 1.7 inches in height and 0.98 to 1.38 inches in diameter. Its skin is of a resistant type called "Mazafati Gold Skin," with a dark, often deep brown to black color. This dark coloration is a result of having the lowest moisture content among dates.
