Save 30%

Saffron from Afghanistan is renowned as some of the finest in the world. The saffron grown by Karima in the Herat region is truly exceptional, characterized by subtle aromas evoking notes of raisins, prunes, and dried straw. What we have selected is the most precious part of the saffron: the intense purple stigmas, devoid of the yellow style that connects the pistil to the base of the flower. This variety is commonly known as "neguine saffron."
