Sayer dates, also known as Estameran, Stamaran, or Samaran, are among Iran’s most prized date varieties, especially renowned for export. Cultivated primarily in the Khuzestan province in southwest Iran, including Shadegan, these dates are cherished for their natural sweetness, semi-dry texture, and easy-to-pit characteristics, making them a top choice for both fresh consumption and industrial use.
Widely favored across Europe and other international markets, Sayer dates are valued for their excellent quality, nutritional richness, and versatile applications in confectionery and natural sweetener production, contributing to a steady dates price in Iran.
Sayer dates boast an attractive oval shape and a color spectrum ranging from light to dark brown, influenced by their growing region. Their semi-dry flesh, with moisture content below 18%, allows for extended shelf life without refrigeration, making them highly suitable for export and long-distance shipping.
One of the most appreciated traits of Sayer dates is their easy separation from the pit, enabling efficient pitting and processing. Sizes vary, and dates are graded to meet market demands, with classifications such as Super Select, Select, Grade B, and GAQ offered in both pitted and unpitted forms.
Typical size range: 2.5 to 4.8 cm in length.
