Saffron

Afghan Herat Saffaron is the Best saffron quality with accordance to HACCP, ISO 20000 & Organic standards. In various packaging options. Sargol literally translates as “top of the flower”. Our Sargol saffron is made up of the red stigmas which have been professionally cut and separated from the style prior to drying. Stigmas cut this way don’t trap the moisture inside. If stigmas stay attached to the style, it keeps inside up to 30-50% dead weight and you pay for it. We only sell the stigmas (filaments). Coloring power is the only measuring tool that assures you of consistent saffron quality. Based on ISO saffron grading standard, our Sargol saffron way passes the requirement of 190 for grade I.
