Saffron, known as the king of spices, is the worlds most expensive spice, prized for its unique flavor and vibrant color. This premium spice is derived from the dried stigmas of the crocus flower, specifically the crocus sativus variety, making it a valuable addition to culinary creations.

Each crocus flower produces only three stigmas, which are carefully hand-picked. It takes over 70,000 flowers to produce just one pound of saffron, highlighting its labor-intensive harvesting process. Saffron has a rich history and has been used since ancient times to enhance the flavor of food and wine. Its stimulating properties support digestion by increasing saliva and digestive juice flow.

The finest saffron is cultivated in Valencia, Spain, where the unique climate and soil contribute to its exceptional quality. Unlike inferior grades, our saffron is made from full stems rather than ground-up pieces, ensuring purity and authenticity. Saffron’s quality is graded based on its coloring power, with category I being the strongest. Our select saffron falls under category I, while our sierra saffron is categorized as II.
