This is the only saffron other than supermarket saffron that I have ever used, and I am seriously impressed with the quality. When put in warm milk and left overnight to infuse, the colour is intense. The first photograph shows the saffron infused milk drizzled over biriani style rice before baking in the oven. The second photograph shows the finished rice after baking. The quantity I bought is sufficient for occasional use. And the more one spends the less expensive it becomes, it appears to be good value for money, though I should say I am not experienced in matters involving saffron. By the way, the colours in the photographs have not been enhanced in any way.

Seems good quality

This is by far the best of the 10 or so different saffron sellers I’ve bought from, including most of the main uk supermarkets. Their saffron is very crisp and brittle compared with other brands indicating that the 1g includes less moisture (water) in the 1g weight than other brands. The saffron strands of some brands have so much water in them that the strands will bend. With this provider you’re paying for the equivalent of several g’s of saffron of other brands. Also, if they’ve made the extra effort to get organic certification, then you wonder what other extra efforts they’ve made to provide good saffron.

Really good! I am not sure if it’s Iranian or Spanish but the name Banu means A lady in Persian so I assume it’s Iranian. It is really good, the taste, the scent all very good. I am glad I found this product. The price is good too. I highly recommend.

Excellent quality well worth the money

High-quality product, but poor value for the money. The packaging is underwhelming for a saffron brand, and the 'no-return' policy is a major drawback. Great saffron, but the buying experience needs significant improvement.

Really good quality been buying for many months. Smells lovely, tastes really good and only need a little for a lot of flavour. Leaves a beautiful colour in curries and deserts.

Non è la prima volta che acquisto questo prodotto e sono sempre molto soddisfatta

Ottimo!

Très bon rapport qualité prix. Aucun problème pour l'emballage et la livraison. Je le laisse infuser pour qu'il disperse tous ses arômes. Je suis fan du safran, je recommande :-)

Un safran exceptionnel ! Grade 1-100% pur, cette épice tout rouge d'Amazon.fr offre une saveur authentique. Son arôme riche et sa couleur éclatante ont transformé mes plats. Une véritable expérience gustative. La qualité est inégalée, et son origine pure garantit une cuisine délicieusement parfumée.

Buen olor pero sabor demaciado azafran parece secado en extracto de azafaran .
