Sagai dates

(الصقعي)

Sagai is a traditional date variety originating from the Arabian Peninsula and it's especially popular in Saudi Arabia. These dates are famous for their two-toned color – at the tip, they are golden and dry, while the rest of the body is brown and soft.


The flavor is mildly sweet, while the unique texture is both crunchy and soft. The demand for these dates is especially high during Ramadan and Eid. The consumption of sagai dates helps in relieving constipation and it's beneficial to curing hangovers and overcoming sexual disorders.
