They taste good
These apricots exceeded my expectations. Normally when I see fancy fruits I'm skeptical but these ones delivered. Great taste, great texture, and not too dry. Not much more you can expect from dried fruits. Definitely worth the price tag

100% Natural!
Its been a while since i had good dried fruits. Right away i could tell that they are fresh and 100% natural, they reminded me my childhood times, when my nana used to sun dry fruits and berries, good old days👍

These really are delectable! Super yummy!
I initially got into Turkish apricots - which I loved. But the sulphur started getting to me recently (makes me cough). I'd seen these, decided to try them. They are absolutely incredible! It's almost like they're dipped in honey, that's how incredibly sweet these apricots are. And the flavor is exce!!ent! None of them were hard, none tasted bad. And the thickness is just right. The whole package was yummy. I put them on subscription to get a better price.NOTE: If you have an issue with your apricots, you can contact the seller directly thru their link on the product page.I recommend doing that rather than just leaving a negative review. Sellers want happy repeat customers! And you want yummy treats!!!😊

Chewy, moist, soft and sweet
Black apricots are not sour at all like regular apricots. They taste closer to figs or plums. They are 100% natural, no sugar added, but they are sticky from the natural juice. These are the done in the moist style, not dried all the way, so they're easy to eat, but they do make your fingers sticky.

Taste good but watch for rocks!!! SO2!!! and other Seller's untrustworthy claims!!!
These, indeed, taste better than most other brands I’ve tried.I’m alternating this kind with other apricots from “Arashan”, particularly, the un-pitted (see the link below), which to me is much superior (by taste) to these.The reason for my negative review is because the Seller, i.e.“Arashan”, claims that they “never touch [their] apricots with Sulphur dioxide [SO₂] like so many other companies do.” This is just more than a FALSE statement.In fact, all other Arashan’s apricots sold on Amazon are with SO₂. See this link below, where both the pitted and un-pitted kinds have SO₂. And here lies the second untrue. Thus, the label for the un-pitted kind does NOT indicate SO₂. However, the label on the actual product lists SO₂ as an ingredient.Here’s the link.https://www.amazon.com/Arashan-Apricots-Delicious-Delectable-Kyrgyzstan/dp/B07QTXHNLJ/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=ARASHAN&qid=1595371600&sr=8-3Also, Arashan’s apricots have a big issue (which has been reported by other reviewers you may want to investigate). And this issue nearly caused me a dental expenditure (had I not become suspicious of the quality of the brand already).In short, Arashan’s apricots have tiny ROCKS that are literally embedded within the exocarp and mesocarp (the yellow skin and flesh we eat). So, watch your teeth!!! Before eating the apricots, I now wash them thoroughly so that they get softer. Then, one by one, I inspect the apricots to remove alien objects such as rocks and some other dark suspicious matter. This helps but not always — as the rocks are really small and, like I said — they are inside the apricots themselves. I often feel how I crush these tiny rocks with my molars. Buhrrr!This raises many questions about Arashan’s manufacturing practices so that their products are not only tasty and nutritious but also healthy and safe.I’d rather prefer those apricots labeled as “USDA organic”, which may not be as tasty (or even nutritious), but which at least have some level of supervision that makes them safe for consumption.

Outstanding. A whole new taste.
I love apricots. I bought this brand out of curiosity and it is absolutely the best dried apricot I have had. Most brands are too dry. This is something else. I thought maybe the first package was a fluke and I reordered— same quality. These are juicy, plump, tasty and just absolutely amazing. Highly recommended

Not bad but not nearly as good as Arashan's regular dried apricots.
I love Arashan regular dried apricots. Recently when I wanted to buy some they were not available I decided to try these Arashan black dried apricots. They are ok but they don't hold a candle on the regular flavor ones. These are much tougher and the flavor is less tangy with an odd slightly nutty aspect. They aren't really bad, but really not to my taste.
