Known for its exotic flavour, aroma and
coloring capabilities, pure saffron threads are one of the most precious spices in the
world. However, the best quality dry saffron threads consists of stigmas (Crocus Sativus
Flowers), which are threadlike in appearance and red or dark red in color.
In other words, the most important features of best quality pure red saffron threads are as
follows:
- Red saffron threads (Stigmas) are all red (no other color)
- Dry saffron threads must be dry and brittle to the touch
- Saffron aroma is strong and fresh, never musty
And what is even more important, is the fact that flowers are plucked at
wee hours well before the sunrise otherwise it will get moisture content,
which brings down its quality. Additionally, it is the fresh yield of
Kashmiri Saffron that is considered to be the best quality.
Considering these facts into account, Raja Traders procure Saffron, only
from the most authentic sources, who are in this trade for generations. Once
we procure stigmas, our experts test each lot of the yield and prepare the
photo-spectrometry report, the guarantee of quality.
Packaging of Saffron is another critical
factor, specially when it comes to the export market. Hence, in order to
preserve the quality of Saffron , we offer special packaging - irrespective
of the product quantity - be it ¼ gm, ½ gm, 1 gm, 2 gm, 5 gm, 10
