Saffron is a beautiful color and flavorful spice, but where does it come from? The answer is a bit complicated. Iran is the largest producer of saffron for many centuries. There are many different uses for this spice, like in ancient Egypt as a cure for gastrointestinal issues, or in Roman times to promote the healing of wounds and to relieve upper respiratory complaints.
We’ve gone to great lengths to make sure our saffron is of the highest quality. We ensure that each red stigma is meticulously hand-cut free from any damage to the threads. Next, we naturally flash-dry it, a method that Premium Saffron has perfected. Therefore, we lose no taste, vitamins or nutrients, and minerals in the process. You can buy saffron in Sydney online and check the quality.
You can see and smell the quality of our saffron without even trying it. When you open one of our packages, you’ll immediately experience a rich blood-red colour and an amazing natural smell. It’s clear that there are no artificial components in our Saffron and that it is of the highest quality. The raw saffron powder that we sell is graded as the best in the world. It has a deep, natural red colour that is envied by the other colours. The high quality and Grade 1 status means that it is packed with flavour and scent-creating compounds, which is one of the reasons that this aroma can only be found in our saffron.
Saffron is rare. It takes a whole lot of flowers to make a pound of the spice. It takes over 80,000 blossoms or 240,000 hand-picked saffron stigmas to make a single pound of this popular product.
Saffron is a magical spice with a long-standing history in holistic health. The best saffron in Australia includes several natural components that have various benefits, including as an essential food ingredient or as a long-standing magical spice used for natural remedies.
Manganese is the main ingredient in saffron and is also a powerhouse of many other vitamins and minerals. These vitamins and minerals are all beneficial to one another, as they play the magical benefits of saffron.

What Makes Our Saffron So Great?
Freshness
One of the best indicators of saffron freshness is its colour. You want to see a vivid red on all threads (not just partial). If you see a dark colour or light orange threads, it’s the lowest quality of saffron.
Pureness
A lot of companies out there mix their saffron with other ingredients, but it’s still possible to find pure saffron. The best way to verify purity is by looking for the strong vivid red tips (All red).
Quality
If you want to get the most out of your saffron purchase, you need to know that its quality is directly related to its colour. In other words, the highest-quality saffron should be deep vivid red. The redder it is, the better:
