Stameran dates are harvested between early September and early October. They are a staple in Iran’s export market, with Europe being a major importer. Cultivated primarily in the Khuzestan province, these dates have a moisture content of less than 18%, allowing for extended storage without refrigeration. Stameran dates can be stored in covered warehouses at ambient temperature for up to 15 months.
With their high sugar content, Stameran dates dissolve quickly in water and have a low adhesion between the fruit and the pit. This makes them easy to pit and ideal for various applications. The dates are typically dark brown, sometimes with reddish hues.
