    People Also Ask

    • What is Saffron?

      Saffron is a prized spice made from the dried stigmas of the saffron crocus flower (Crocus sativus). Each flower yields only three vibrant red saffron threads, making it rare and labor-intensive to harvest. Renowned for its rich aroma, unique flavor, and antioxidant benefits, saffron enhances dishes like paella, risotto, and desserts.

      At the heart of our saffron is a commitment to quality and authenticity. Every thread is handpicked with care to add joy and a special touch to your meals. Experience the difference with our saffron threads—pure, flavorful, and perfect for creating memorable culinary moments.

    • Why is saffron so expensive?

      Saffron is so expensive because it is one of the most labor-intensive crops to produce. Each flower of the saffron crocus produces only 3 threads, and it takes around 150,000 flowers to produce just one kilogram. The harvesting process is entirely done by hand and requires careful attention, as the flowers must be picked and processed quickly to preserve the quality of the threads. This low yield per flower, combined with high global demand and the intricate labour involved, makes saffron one of the most valuable spices in the world. learn more about Saffron Farming.

    • what does saffron taste like?

      Saffron has a unique and complex flavour that is difficult to compare to other spices. It is often described as having a rich, earthy taste with floral, honey-like sweetness and subtle grassy or hay-like undertones. The flavour of saffron threads is both delicate and intense, enhancing dishes with a warm, slightly bitter yet aromatic quality. This distinct taste makes saffron a prized ingredient in dishes like risottos, curries, and desserts, adding depth and sophistication to recipes.
