Heirloom Kishmish Raisins

Hands down the biggest raisins I’ve had the pleasure to nibble. Sourced by our friends at Ziba Foods from the Kandahar Province in southern Afghanistan, heirloom Shungul Khani grapes are big and green and long and sweet. Kishmish (the word for "raisin" in Dari, the most commonly spoken language in Afghanistan) are all those things with a flavor that’s even more intense thanks to being concentrated into raisin form.

They’re a flavorful and pretty addition to any cheese board and are very easy to snack on when you need something sweet. And they are definitely sweet without being cloying.

If you have kids, these go over like gangbusters. Leave out the part about them being healthy.
