The saffron we supply is gently hand picked from each stamen: it takes 150,000 flowers to produce just two pounds! The saffron plant is indigenous to Iran where it is cultivated on the country's rich plains. From these magical fields comes the world's best.

Uniquely, Iranian saffron is a rich, dark autumnal red in colour and has a distinctive aromatic bouquet, bringing life to special dishes. Comes in a small 1/3oz air-tight container or 5 x 1/30ox packets.
