Natural grown dry JUJUBE date ,CHINESE DATES, Hong Zao Herbal Foods 200g

I am not happy at all with the product. Has a rancid smell and the skin is extremely dry. Tastes like Cork texture, you can feel it scratching your throat when you try to swallow. Very disappointed. I won't buy it again. UPDATE: I received a new bag of dates (as a replacement ) and the aroma, flavor color, and texture were absolutely different. Very sweet and soft! I'm sure the problem was the storage, not the product itself. The tea tastes fresh and natural. Customer service, above and beyond! Following up with a customer to ensure quality is a must. I am satisfied with the product and I appreciate the opportunity to taste a new batch that absolutely made a difference in my perception of the product quality. Plus, to enjoy a natural and fresh fruity taste of their tea brand. A great customer service always makes a difference. The last 3 pictures are of new product received and there is a significant difference in texture and color.

Jujube dates are not soft and sticky like the dates most Americans are used to; they're dry and chewy but after I read that the Shao-lin monks of China (remember the TV series Kung-fu?) eat them everyday for strength, I bought these from NestLady as there are no added chemicals etc. (the don't claim to be organic) and are reasonably priced and subscribable. Many people treat them like herbs and make tea with them, so that tells me they transfer their herbal benefits to the water so what I do now is place a week's worth in a jar and cover with filtered water; I eat 3 a day and after I eat the last one, I drink the soaking water, which by this time has begun to ferment, like cider, and has a pleasant taste and light fizziness. It's a good way to get the benefits of both "tea" and the dates and fiber etc. themselves. Try it; you'll like it!

I tried jujubes for the first time several months ago. I have been passionately in love with these dried fruits since then. This organic brand is amazing! The jujubes were larger than other brands of jujubes I purchased. The texture is fluffy and they taste delectable!

Extremely high quality dates! They are dried to perfection, and they have a super long shelf life when stored properly. They are a bright ruby red, with a nice spongy texture that isn't too chewy. The size of the bag is amazing for the price. This is the only brand I will be purchasing these dates from, and I will continue to be a repeat customer!

The NESTLADY Premium Jujube Dates have a nice natural sweetness and good flavor.However, the size is smaller than I expected.They also don’t seem as fresh as I had hoped.Overall, decent taste but quality could be better.

Very dry and not good taste

Rich in Nutrients. They are high in vitamins and minerals, particularly vitamin C and potassium, and are low in calories

The order I received was timely but the dates are very dry and the taste is not what I expected. I was told sweet, but they aren't. I even put them in my hot tea, like the Chinese baddies taught me on TT, but they were still dry and not appealing.
