AlUla Barni Mabroom
The precious premium grade Barni Mabroom date has been grown for
centuries in the ancient oasis of AlUla, Saudi Arabia, a home for successive
civilizations for 7000 years. Barni Mabroom is the fruit of the local knowledge
and know-how of the farmers who have preserved its qualities through time.
An Authentic Story of AlUla
At the heart of the majestic landscapes of AlUla, a millennia-old oasis in the Arabian Peninsula, grows a true gem of nature: the Barni Mabroom date.
Cultivated in palm groves nourished by deep water sources and ancestral traditions, this rare variety tells the story of generations of farmers deeply connected to their land.
Its origins go back centuries, rooted in a unique climate where the sun, sandstone and basaltic soils enrich every single fruit.
A Unique
Location
Nestled in northwest Saudi Arabia, AlUla offers an ideal microclimate for date farming. Its dry heat, low humidity, and mineral-rich soil give Barni Mabroom dates their tender texture and perfectly balanced sweetness.
Remarkable
Health Benefits
Barni Mabroom dates combine a caramel-like flavor with a fibrous texture and a low glycemic index. Rich in antioxidants, fiber, potassium, and magnesium, they support digestion, muscle recovery, and long-lasting energy — without sugar spikes.
A Historic First
for Europe
In 2025, AlUla exported Barni Mabroom dates to Europe for the first time, highlighting its commitment to quality, traceability, and meeting EU standards.
