Our saffron is collected by hand from the Crocus sativus flower. The flowers bloom in the fall, and they must be picked by hand within a few hours of opening. The stigmas, or threads, are the most valuable part of the flower, and they are carefully removed by hand.
The stigmas are then dried, usually in the sun. Our workers take great care in the drying process, which takes several days. This is to preserve the flavor and aroma of the saffron.
Once the stigmas are dry, they are sorted by color and grade. We offer you the best quality saffron with a strong flavor and aroma.
The high cost of saffron is due to the time and effort required to collect and dry the stigmas.
Saffron is a valuable spice that has been used for centuries for its flavor, aroma, and medicinal properties. It is a labor-intensive crop to produce, but it is worth the effort for its unique qualities.
We are proud to offer you the finest saffron available. Our saffron is grown and processed in accordance with the highest standards. We guarantee that you will be satisfied with the quality of our saffron.
