Description

Mazafati dates are another Iranian date variety. They belong to the wet date category, as they have high moisture content, which is one of the quality indicators in Mazafati dates. Fresh dates, harvested at the beginning of September, tend to retain the highest moisture levels and are the most expensive. Depending on the moisture levels, there are three types of Mazafati dates: fresh dates have about 30% moisture, semi-dry dates have 20-25%, and dried dates have 16%  moisture.

Mazafati dates are usually black and have thin skin, which can be easily removed. The taste is very sweet, and they can act as a sugar substitute. Another unique quality of Mazafati is that they pack more iron than other date types, which can promote healthy hair growth. Aside from iron, Mazafati dates contain phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and magnesium and are beneficial to developing the nervous system and lowering cholesterol. They also have many calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins, such as A, B complex, and C.
