REFThe Taif rose, with sources
The Taif rose, from highland to attar.
Where it grows, how it is picked and distilled, how its oil sits beside Bulgarian and Turkish rose oil, and who builds on it, with sources.
A rose of the highlands: Al-Hada and Al-Shafa
Taif sits at about 1,800 metres on the eastern slopes of the Sarawat Mountains, in Makkah Province.1 Its rose farms climb higher, into Al-Hada and Al-Shafa, the latter at roughly 2,500 metres.1 Growers put the terraces at around 2,000 metres,2 high for a species usually grown between 300 and 1,500;3 Bulgaria's Rose Valley lies at 370 to 625.4 Winter lows sit near 3 °C, summer averages under 30 °C.1 The plant is a Damask rose, Rosa × damascena var. trigintipetala, a name meaning thirty-petalled.5 Locally it is الورد الطائفي, the Taif rose: light red and strongly scented,1 grown on some 860 small farms on ridges and in wadi beds.6
A spring harvest, picked before the sun
The rose year begins in winter: from December to February farmers fertilise, water, prune and plant cuttings.7 The harvest begins in March and lasts thirty-five to forty-five days.78 Families and friends pick in the early morning and carry the flowers to market or home to be distilled;7 growers say picked at dawn and distilled within twenty-four hours.29 It is over two months before the Bulgarian and Turkish harvests of May and June begin.410
The copper still, and the tola
About 13,000 roses go into a copper pot with water. A fire is lit beneath it, steam rises through a pipe in the lid into a water-cooled vessel, and the condensate drips into the talqiyah.1112 The first, strongest run is al-Arus, the bride's water.11 The oil that gathers on the distillate is the attar, sold by the tola, roughly 11.4 grams.2 On how many roses make a tola, the published answers disagree: 12,000 to 18,000 from a grower in 2011,2 about 12,000 in a 2026 report,9 about 13,000 by Saudipedia,8 and 70,000 from a farmer working the traditional way in 2025.12 Some seventy distilleries and workshops work the Taif heights.121
The festival, and a place on the UNESCO list
The Taif Rose Festival at Al-Rudaf Park had run for seventeen years by 2022.13 The 2024 edition, Qitaf 19, laid a carpet of 1,026,491 roses and flowers across 5,206 square metres.14 In December 2024, at the 19th session of UNESCO's Intergovernmental Committee, Cultural practices related to Taif roses was inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.7 It covers the community's practices: cultivation, harvest, home distillation, gifts, petals thrown before guests, the craft passed within families.7 It recognises a tradition, not a product, and confers nothing on this domain. RoseTaif.com has no affiliation with UNESCO, the Heritage Commission, the festival or any farm.
Rose water and attar in Gulf life
Rose water and rose oil go into beauty products, dishes and drinks, and roses and rose water are given as gifts.7 The most ceremonial use is reported each year: at the washing of the Kaaba on the 15th of Muharram, the interior is cleaned with Zamzam water mixed with Taifi rose water, and the walls are perfumed with Taifi rose oil and oud.1513
Taif rose oil beside Bulgarian and Turkish rose oil
All three come from Rosa × damascena by steam distillation; the differences are of place, season and proportion.45 Bulgarian oil, protected in the European Union as Bulgarsko rozovo maslo since 2014,16 is defined by a specification: citronellol 24 to 35 percent, geraniol 13 to 22, nerol 5 to 12, and a harvest from May lasting twenty to twenty-five days.4 The rose oil standard, ISO 9842, is written around that profile.17 A 2013 study of two Taif samples bought from dealers in Riyadh found citronellol 23 to 28 percent, geraniol 14 to 20, nonadecane 11 to 16 and nerol 6 to 11:5 the same alcohols carry the scent. Taif University researchers note that Saudi oils do not fully comply with ISO 9842 while having a high olfactive potential.6 Carotenoid-derived ketones such as β-damascenone strongly shape rose flavour;18 damascenone was first characterised from Bulgarian rose oil in 1970.19

06Questions
Before you offer.
Is RoseTaif.com really available?
Yes. The domain is held directly by its owner and is available to acquire now.
Is there a fixed price?
No. The name is sold on an offer basis. Send your offer through the form or by email and you will get a personal reply within 24 hours.
How does the transfer work?
Once terms are agreed, payment goes to an escrow service. The domain is moved into your registrar account, and funds are released only after you confirm it is under your control.
Is this site connected to Taif or its rose farms?
No. This is an independent domain sale page. It is not affiliated with any government body, festival, farm or company in Taif, and it sells no products.
What exactly is the Taif rose?
A Damask rose, Rosa × damascena var. trigintipetala, grown on small highland farms around Taif: light red, strongly scented, and distilled into rose water and attar.
When is the Taif rose harvested?
From March, for thirty-five to forty-five days, picked in the early morning and distilled within a day, two months before the Bulgarian and Turkish harvests.
How many roses make a tola of Taif rose oil?
Published figures run from about 12,000 to 70,000 roses per tola, depending on producer, pot and method; a tola is roughly 11.4 grams.
How does Taif rose oil differ from Bulgarian or Turkish rose oil?
Same species and distillation, so citronellol, geraniol and nerol lead in all three. The differences are altitude (about 2,000 metres against under 650 in Bulgaria's Rose Valley), season (March to April against May to June) and how the oil is traded.
Does the UNESCO listing come with the domain?
No. UNESCO inscribed the cultural practices of the Taif community in 2024, not a product or a website. RoseTaif.com is an independent sale with no connection to UNESCO, the Heritage Commission, the festival or any farm, and confers no certification.
