Dayri Dates

Dayri dates are large, oblong shaped fruits with thick soft flesh surrounding a single seed. Dayri dates are dark brown to black in color and very tender, lacking the fibrous texture that some other varieties tend to have. Though not as sugary as the Medjool, but sometimes referred to as even more “date-y” in flavor, the Dayri’s modest sweetness is balanced by a somewhat earthy finish.
