Saffron isn’t just the world’s most expensive spice — it’s a story of culture, labor, and incredible value.
🔸 1 gram of saffron requires around 150–200 flowers to be hand-harvested.
🔸 Iran produces over 90% of the world’s saffron, and the Khorasan region is the heart of its production.
🔸 Saffron is not only used in cooking — it’s also valued in medicine, cosmetics, and natural wellness industries.
🔸 The color, aroma, and taste of saffron come from crocin, picrocrocin, and safranal, three powerful natural compounds.
🔸 Real saffron is always tested for quality — ISO 3632 certification is a global standard.
