With the start of the “early ripe dates” season, marking the first ripening of palm fruits, Emirati families begin gathering around Arabic coffee to taste the new harvest, while others head to farms to take part in the picking. The season creates a scene that brings together social traditions and agricultural heritage. Early varieties such as Al-Naghal and Al-Daلاbas lead the season, before other varieties follow, filling local markets with their distinctive colors and flavors.
