Welcome to Safaroma! We are specialized in Pure Saffron and Saffron Tea Blends. Saffron has always been so rare, superfood, exquisite, and healthy.

Saffron is a crucial ingredient in European dishes, such as Spain's paella, Italian's Risotto & France's bouillabaisse

Saffron has always been so rare superfood, exquisite, and expensive, as it takes 450,000 stigmas (or 150,000 blossoms) to make a kilogram of saffron. The use of it marked power and wealth.

It is said that Alexander the Great bathed in saffron after battle to heal his wounds, and Cleopatra soaked herself in a saffron bathe. The spice has been coveted as a health-giving remedy during medieval Europe. Wars have been fought over saffron and it has graced the wedding beds of nobles and royalty.

Traditionally, saffron is not only used as a tea blend in the middle eastern countries but also it an essential to so many cuisines, e.g Indian, Moroccan, Afghan, Lebanese and Iran dishes.

Safaroma is procuring its premium saffron directly from the women farmers, so by cutting all the many middlemen, we are able to drop off our prices significantly in favour of our community of saffron consumers here in the US and Canada.

SUPERIOR QUALITY & AUTHENTICITY

This 100% natural and super premium product saffron has very hot demand in North American level markets.

Our pure saffron naturally grown in the Ghoryan district of Herat province of Afghanistan by Ghoryan Saffron Women Union members. Saffron is both a spice and also used as herbal tea, harvested from the stigma of the 100% naturally- grown Crocus Sativus flower.

Saffron has been coveted throughout history—not only as a golden-spice, but as a dye, a perfume, a medicine

Saffron is essential to the cuisines of India, Morocco, Afghanistan and Iran, it is also the crucial ingredient in classic European dishes, such as Spain's paella and France's bouillabaisse.This elusive flavor is best coaxed out by briefly toasting the threads in a skillet or steeping them in hot water, after which cooks often crumble it directly into the pot or use it to infuse a stock or wine.

SAFFRON HARVESTING & ITS USAGE HISTORY

baking with saffron cake, muffins, cookies, cakes, desserts, ice cream

Saffron is widely used in baking cakes, cookies, muffins and breads

Homemade Saffron ice creams and smoothies are getting so famous nowadays!

Saffron in Afghanistan is a viable alternative to opium, which funds the warlords and other extremist groups. Our farmers can make three to five times more from growing saffron than growing poppy. By increasing demand for Afghanistan saffron, we are displacing opium production and depriving the Taliban of revenues.

Currently, our women farmer's network has expanded from under 10 to almost 1000. Each one of our farmers has doubled and tripled their saffron production year over year.

What Is Saffron

King of Spices

Saffron consists of the stigmas of the Crocus Sativus Linnaeus. It is best grown in warm, arid, and mountainous climates, characteristic of Afghanistan's western regions. Over the centuries, it has been lauded as the "King of Spices" and prized for its health-giving and aromatic qualities. Its ethereal flavour makes a perfect enhancement for both sweet and savoury dishes.

How Saffron is harvested and processed

Saffron comes from the interior of the amethyst-coloured saffron crocus and must be hand-harvested due to its fragility in October. The flowers are taken from the field to a state-of-art facility where the three stigmas are hand separated from the blossoms.

The stigmas are collected together and then placed in commercial drying machines for several hours under heat to both sanitize and dry the saffron. Dried saffron threads are Inspected under a magnifying glass and microbiologically tested before shipping to the US and Canada, where we go through yet another round of inspection and testing.

Food for a Social Good

Safaroma is a social enterprise. We partner directly with farmers to bring you the world's highest quality saffron. We focus on developing our farmers and processors and to catalyze economic development in rural Afghanistan.
