It takes an immense amount of painstaking manual labor to produce saffron. How much? Over 3,000 saffron crocus flowers are hand-picked for just one ounce. So yeah, it's expensive. That's why it's acquired the moniker, "red gold". Luckily, a little goes a long way.
"Absolutely perfect! I ordered my Spanish saffron online and I received my product within a few days. I have told my whole family (since we are all chefs) about your company. The saffron is such a great quality, I could smell it as soon as I opened the box. I WILL be back!" - Vanessa, who appreciates pleasantly aromatic packages
These are one gram jars of saffron threads, imported from Spain. Guaranteed 100% saffron according to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) guidelines. During the monda or esbrinar portion of harvesting the stigma of the flower, a deep red thread, is removed, toasted, and dried to conserve the saffron's distinct aroma and flavor.
Would you like a larger amount? We also have one ounce (28 g) tins.

"We've been buying this from Donostia for 15+ years and it's still the same great Spanish saffron. We travel frequently to Spain and cook a LOT of Spanish (and Catalan!) food at home and all of Donostia's Spanish products help us recreate the Spanish experience. Good stuff (briefly...)"
