Violeta Saffron product of SpainInformationSaffron is considered the most expensive spice in the world also known as "The Red Gold". This valuable spice can be acquired from a flower commonly called the saffron crocus. With the scientific name Crocus sativus, the stigmas of this plant can be dried and processed into a spice, which is actually the most valuable spice by weight. These “threads” as they are called, are typically reddish orange, the same color as the spice, and are carefully removed from flowers by hand. This herb is highly desired because of its ability to season and color food, as well as its inherent health benefits. The unique organic composition of saffron makes it a powerful addition to your diet, as it contains more than 150 volatile compounds, including carotenoids, safranal, crocin, antioxidants, and other biochemicals, as well as minerals and vitamins that are essential to human health. TypesVioleta Saffron is Category 1 (Grade A) ISO 3632. This proves the purity of Violeta Saffron and further information is available at ISO website .

Quality saffron at a reasonable price
First time saffron user here. Went with this one. It is sourced from Spain and states to be an ISO 3632 certified product, so you should be getting the legitimate thing and not some filler product. The saffron is a solid red and fragrant. Quality seems to be good; given that this is my first, I cannot compare it with another saffron source. This batch was packaged Nov. 2018 and expires in 2020, so plenty of time to cook some delicious meals. The packaging is not a clamshell design, so, for ease of opening, make sure all four edges have been scored at the start.
