Spanish saffron has been well known in Europe and
America for its
romantic aroma, lovely flavor, and coloring capabilities. They come in very
attractive packaging with lower prices than the other two rivals, mainly Kashmiri saffron and Persian saffron. The most popular size used by
chefs are the one
ounce tin containers. Based on our experience with gourmet chefs, nine out of
ten chefs who use saffron, use the one ounce tin container of
Spanish saffron. This Spanish saffron is from the current crop (2007) and is one of the finest and most popular
brand since 1880- THE
GATHERING OF SAFFRON - used by the chefs. It is 100% pure, premium quality,
free from any objectionable or animal fat. In addition, the Gathering of
Saffron brand is
Kosher certified. It comes in a decorative tin
container. The tin container itself is extremely gorgeous and can be used for storing other items long
after the saffron is gone. We have seen the empty one ounce tin container of the gathering of saffron being sold on
eBay as a collectable item for $5-$10.
