Why is Saffron So Expensive?
Saffron, known as the “red gold,” derives its exclusivity from the intricate and labor-intensive harvesting process. Each delicate saffron crocus flower yields only a few precious threads, which are handpicked with utmost care. The meticulous harvesting, coupled with the vast number of flowers required to produce even a small quantity, contributes to the rarity and costliness of this spice.
Where Saffron Grows and How It Is Grown?
Our Turkish saffron is cultivated in the fertile soils of Turkey, where the climate and terrain create the perfect conditions for this delicate flower. The saffron crocus thrives in well-drained soil and abundant sunlight. Istanbul Classics partners with skilled farmers who follow traditional cultivation methods, ensuring the highest quality saffron threads for our customers.
Saffron: A Glimpse into Nature’s Elegance
Derived from the Crocus sativus flower, saffron is a vivid red spice that adds both color and flavor to a variety of dishes. Renowned for its distinct taste and aroma, saffron is an essential ingredient in Turkish cuisine.
