Saffron is known as "the king of spices," and as the world's most expensive spice. Red Saffron is made from the dried stigmas of the flower species crocus. Each flower of the crocus sativus has only three pistils, and these must be picked by hand.

Over 70,000 flowers are required to yield 1 lb. of saffron. It has been used since classical times as a flavoring in food and wine. It is an effective stimulant and digestive, increasing the flow of saliva and digestive juices. Maximizing the flavor involves infusing a couple threads in a spoonful of hot milk or water for five minutes.

"Altaj" saffron is known worldwide by its riches in flavor and taste. Also accredited as one of the best Spanish Saffron qualities in the market, guaranteeing the most natural and pure yellow color. Nirav brand Saffron, produced by 'Altaj" is specially prepared from the best selected saffron produced in Spain.
