## Features

- 🗻 NATURAL & PURE WITHOUT ANY ADDITIVES: 100% Pure Original Kashmir Saffron Threads Vacuum packed in an air-tight glass bottle snugly stored in a tamper proof sturdy box. An experience crafted both for enthusiasts of saffron and those who wish to gift this out to their loved ones. Easy dispensation thanks to our vacuum packed sealed air-tight glass bottle. A little Kashmir Saffron goes a long way!
- 🗻 PERFECT FOR GIFTING: The perfect rare and exotic gift for festive occasions. Unlike uni-dimensional saffron produced in other parts of the world, Kashmir Saffron has a pleasant honey-like aroma and a sweet after-taste which makes it ideal for a wide range of culinary applications from desserts to savoury preparations and even beverages. Impress your friends with dazzling pilafs and ice-creams alike.
- 🗻 SINGLE ORIGIN & POTENCY: Kashmir Saffron cultivated in Pampore has some of the highest levels of natural flavouring potency. This imparts saffron its intense aroma, vivid colour and characteristic taste. One can easily distinguish Kashmir “Mongra” Saffron from other grades as only the thickest and darkest (maroon-purple) stigmas are selected for sale within the “Mongra” category.
- 🗻 CHOICE OF CHEFS: Kashmir Saffron is an excellent choice for your fine dine plating needs as it mostly consists of lush, thick and all red/maroon threads without the tail ends of the stigmas. Instructions on how to properly use our all natural Kashmir Saffron are included in the package. Post infusion, Kashmir Saffron threads bloom into thick bright red strands which act as natural embellishments.
- 🗻 EXPORT GRADE: From personal inspection of plantations to vacuum packing of each individual jar, no stone is left unturned to manufacture this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How to use it?**
A: Advised to soak it in milk or water for 2-3 hrs and then use it for dishes like halwa, kheer or other sweets

**Q: I have bought the saffron now but the saffron isn't opening the bottle very tight have tried everything any suggestions fast plz!**
A: You can use a knife to lightly pry open the sides of the tin cap.

**Q: If we teste it raw is it bitter in taste as real saffron is bittet in taste**
A: Dear Gayatri, a very good observation indeed. Saffron is quite bitter in taste. This is due to the presence of an organic compound known as "Picrocrocin". Morever, there are laboratory tests which can measure the level of "Picrocrocin" and as a result determine how bitter that batch of Saffron is going to be. For Saffron to receive a "Grade-A" certification, "Picrocrocin" levels have to be above 70 (Bitterness expressed as absorbance of Picrocrocin at about 257 nm (on dry basis). Our batches have exceeded these levels time and again!

**Q: So it comes in sealed bottle ?**
A: Yes
