Medjool Dates are often called the King of Dates by many. They are larger dates known for their sweetness, soft and chewy texture, with a caramel-like taste. Their sizes range from jumbo, large, to medium. Cost varies by grading.
Zahidi date is a smaller oval shape date. These dates are smaller than your larger variety of Medjool and Degletnoor dates. They are not as sweet, but very tasty. Zahidi dates are a semi-dry date fruit. They are often described as having a nutty, buttery, caramel flavor.
