About This Item
What Makes Afghan Super Negin Saffron Exceptional
Each thread of our saffron is hand-harvested with care from the stigma of the Crocus sativus flower, preserving its rich, vivid color. The threads carry a striking aroma and bring depth to any dish they're added to. Flavor-wise, expect a layered combination of honey-like sweetness, earthy undertones, and a subtle bittersweet edge. This Super Negin variety works beautifully in savory rice preparations, hearty stews, and sweet desserts, and it's equally suited to rich, floral drinks.
We source our saffron directly from Afghan farmers who rely on sustainable, time-honored growing methods passed down through generations. Through our commitment to fair trade, we help support these farmers' livelihoods and generate positive economic impact within their local communities. Each year at harvest time, our founder, Mohammad Salehi, travels to meet with the farmers personally to verify the quality and integrity of our Grade A Pure saffron supply. The Heray Spice farmers' cooperative has been growing, cultivating, and harvesting this exceptional saffron since 2007.
This premium spice is well suited for use in rice dishes, beans, tea, paella, and curry preparations, and it plays an essential role in chicken dishes, meat recipes, and classic saffron risotto. It's also a great addition to an authentic saffron tahdig. Saffron has a long history spanning thousands of years of both culinary and medicinal use.
Harvesting for this Super Negin Saffron takes place annually between November and December, guaranteeing you receive the most recently harvested crop. Our saffron contains no additives, artificial coloring, or preservatives of any kind - just pure, high-quality saffron delivered straight from farm to table.

The order arrived timely. The packaging was very impressive. Cute little glass containers with cork tops to retain freshness. Purchased the saffron with the intent of maintaining and promoting my eye health. It has a very pleasant and palatable taste. I have only consumed approx. 1/2 gram per day for 4 days now, so it is too early to establish the potential benefits of same. However, I have an eye exam scheduled for September, and, if there are no declining changes in my , vision, I will undoubtedly be ordering more saffron from Heray Spice.
Dear Jo Anne! Thank you for your wonderful kind 5-star review. We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying our saffron and its health benefits. We hope to hear about your positive results after your eye exam in September. Thank you for choosing Heray Spice and we look forward to serving you again in the future. Have a great day!

Thank you for the kind 5-star review.
I have received compliments on saffron spiced: soups, stews, stir-fries, teas, and ice cream. And I'm planning to try it on or in baked goods, barbecue sauces, bulgurs, chilis, and coucous dishes. Thank you so much again Heray Spice!
