Safawi Madinah Dates — The Premium Ajwa Alternative with a Loyal Following
Safawi dates are a premium dark variety from Madinah, Saudi Arabia, often described as Ajwa's "sibling". Safawi has a deep glossy black colour, a slightly elongated medium size, a soft-to-chewy texture, and a richly sweet flavour with a gentle earthy note — similar to Ajwa but with finer fibre. At Pusat Kurma, Safawi is the most sought-after second choice after Ajwa, with a very loyal customer base across Jabodetabek.
Safawi vs Ajwa: What's the Difference?
Safawi and Ajwa both come from Madinah and share a close flavour profile. The difference is that Safawi tends to be more available and more affordable because its trees are more productive, while Ajwa is rarer and holds a special place in the sunnah. For many customers, Safawi is the sweet spot: premium Madinah flavour at a friendlier price for routine consumption.
Nutrition at a Glance
Like other dark dates, Safawi is rich in fibre, potassium, magnesium and antioxidants, with natural sugars for energy. Its soft texture and rich taste make it lovely for iftar and everyday snacking. Enjoy in moderation if you manage blood sugar.
