Please reach out to us directly, and we’ll be happy to either replace the product or issue a refund. Your feedback is valuable, and we’re committed to resolving this.

Lovely Saffron

My saffron looks really fresh and has a lovely color- I used a little last weekend in a paella - it tasted great - but I really don't know exactly how saffron should taste - just no experience with it. Will change that in the upcoming weeks.

Hi Helen,
Thansk for the 5-star review.
Yes the saffron we sell is fresh, and has a great color. And of course a great taste too.
I would suggest to make a saffron latte, or saffron tea. You can also make a saffron rice, or saffron risotto. Check our website under blog&recipe. We are also in the process of creating and writing new recipes.

Best regards,
Mohammad Salehi
