Organic Saffron Threads – Hand-harvested saffron from Sardinia, Bioagricert certified, 0.5 g

This organic saffron in whole threads (pistils)is carefully cultivated, harvested and cleaned by hand in Sardinia – one of the oldest and most renowned saffron-growing regions in the world. Saffron (Crocus sativus), the "red gold" of the culinary world, is the most valuable spice in the world: Between 140,000 and 200,000 flowers are required to produce 1 kg of saffron threads. The distinctive aroma, intense color and unique flavor are determined by the three main active compounds– crocin & crocetin(carotenoids, responsible for the golden color) and safranal(monoterpene aldehyde, responsible for the characteristic aroma). This saffron is certified organic (Bioagricert), pure and unadulterated – without the addition of safflower, turmeric powder or synthetic dyes, which are commonly used on the market to stretch inferior products. As a conscious consumer, you rely on full traceability of the entire supply chain, quality and purity. Produced and harvested by: Sa Tanca de Is Janas – Società Agricola Semplice, Via Sant'Ignazio 9, Oristano, Sardinia.Bioagricert certification, code: BIO007T12.
