WHAT ARE MADJOOL DATES?

Medjool dates, known as “the King of Dates”, are famous for their large size, soft texture, and rich taste. Dates are a tropical stone fruit and grow on date palm trees, similar to coconut palm trees. This prized fruit, which was historically reserved for Moroccan royalty, is still considered a delicacy today. 

In addition to their great taste, Medjool dates are known for their nutritional benefits. They provide a significant amount of fiber, as well as calcium, iron, potassium, B vitamins, copper, and magnesium. The fruit is also believed to have cardiovascular and digestive health benefits and is also used as a fuel source by world-class endurance athletes.

Growing Medjool dates is a labor-intensive process, one that we consider a labor of love. A date palm begins to produce dates after around seven years, and once this happens, each tree must be tended to 12-15 times per year. While still on the trees, the Medjool dates are allowed to go through a drying process that makes them soft and sticky and concentrates their sugars, resulting in the deep caramel-like flavor.

WHY THE JORDAN VALLEY?

Tadros Farms is situated in the heart of the Jordan Valley, which is the lowest point on earth. Situated well below sea level, the air in the Jordan Valley is oxygen-rich, and the area has exceptionally high temperatures, low humidity, and little rainfall. This environment is perfect for growing the best Medjool dates in the world.
