Product Description

Saffron is the golden stigma of the purple fall crocus flower and the world's most expensive spice, due to its labor-intensive cultivation.

Only five to seven pounds of saffron can be produced from an acre of land; the flavor of saffron, on the other hand, goes a long, long way.

Our authentic Spanish saffron is packaged in a beautiful tin.

100% Spanish Saffron, Excellent for rice and paella.

Saffron from Spain is extremely potent. Saffron can be used to flavor forty servings of saffron rice or two large batches of paella with just one gram.

Questions & Answers

Is there a time limit on this?

End of the year 2027

I'm curious if anyone has tried this saffron and compared it to the Gathering of Saffron brand saffron to see if the quality and taste are comparable. ?

Same

Is this 28 gm saffron box made up of 1 gm boxes or is it just a single saffron box?

It's a single saffron box.

What is the Saffron's Expiry Date?

BEFORE DECEMBER 2022 IS THE BEST TIME TO BUY. If stored in a cool, dry location with airtight packaging, our SAFFRON will last for 8 years.

Selected User Reviews For Altaj Crown 100% Spanish Saffron 1 Oz (28.30 Grams)

It passes the authenticity test and is a good value, but it's not the best

3/5

It has a decent flavor but it's nowhere near the best. The strands are long and a little less dehydrated than most. It has a pleasant aroma as well.

Beware

3/5

This is a forgery. This is a forgery. beware. Warm water produces bright colors right away. The color is not the same as saffron in real life. With the weight of the color dye, almost everything sinks. So I'm not sure if there's even a trace of genuine saffron in there. It's crazy to see @AmazonPrime selling fake foods. I'm not sure what chemical is used for both the color and the rubbery material.

best buy

5/5

I'm a saffron connoisseur, and this is the best bang for the buck I've ever had. It has a great flavor and isn't overly dry. It's still supple and rich-tasting. Another tin is on its way to me- RIGHT THIS MOMENT!.

What a fantastic bargain! This is the one you should buy

5/5

Allows you to play around with the flavor of this spice without breaking the bank. Saffron is great in rice, seafood, and chicken, but most people I know have never used it due to the high cost. I knew I had to start using this spice after visiting Spain and being served delicious dishes, so I paid $5 for a small pinch and began looking for what I'd seen in the markets. When I opened the tin, I was taken aback by how much there was. We couldn't believe how much money there was. Unless you own a restaurant, you'll most likely want to divide and share your food. It'll feed 6 to 8 cooks, and it'll make a fantastic gift for anyone who enjoys cooking. They'll assume you spent a lot of money.
