Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our saffron.

About Our Saffron

Where does your saffron come from?

All of our saffron is sourced exclusively from Taliouine, Morocco — a region renowned for producing some of the world's finest saffron. It holds a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status, guaranteeing its authenticity and origin.

Is your saffron 100% pure?

Absolutely. We sell only pure, unadulterated saffron threads. No additives, no fillers, no artificial colouring. What you receive is exactly what was hand-harvested from the fields of Taliouine.

How do I know it's high quality?

Our saffron is tested for crocin, safranal, and picrocrocin levels — the three key quality markers defined by ISO 3632. We consistently meet or exceed Category I standards, the highest grade available.

Using Saffron

How much saffron should I use?

A little goes a long way. For most recipes serving 4 people, just a pinch (0.1–0.2g or about 20–30 threads) is sufficient. Our saffron is highly potent, so start small and adjust to taste.

What's the best way to use saffron in cooking?

We recommend blooming your saffron first: soak the threads in 2–3 tablespoons of warm (not boiling) water or milk for 15–20 minutes before adding to your dish. This releases the colour, aroma, and flavour fully.

How should I store saffron?

Store saffron in an airtight container away from direct light, heat, and moisture. A cool, dark cupboard is ideal. Properly stored, saffron retains its potency for up to 3 years.
