Questions
Before you order.
How do I know this is really Zahidi?+
Every pack carries a batch code and a harvest year, and the grade sheet above is written against that specific batch. If what arrives does not match the count per kilo or the moisture we published, send it back and we will refund it.
Where exactly does it come from?+
This variety is grown in Basra, Iraq. We publish the growing region rather than just the country, because a country name tells you almost nothing about a date.
How long will it keep?+
Cool and dry. The most forgiving of the six. No refrigeration needed.
How many pieces will I get?+
At a count of 130 – 160 per kilo, a 500 g pack holds roughly half that number. Counting them once is the easiest check you can do at home.
What if I order the wrong variety?+
Tell us within seven days and we will exchange it, unopened, at our cost. Choosing between six varieties from a screen is genuinely hard.
Do you deliver outside Lahore?+
Yes, across Pakistan. Cash on delivery is available nationwide, and paying by bank transfer, Easypaisa or JazzCash carries a discount.
