Sargol literally translates as “top of the flower”. Our Persian Sargol saffron is made up of the red stigmas which have been professionally cut and separated from the style prior to drying.
For many saffron enthusiasts, Sargol Cut saffron is preferred over the various other grades of saffron due to high levels of crocin, the property responsible for the distinct aroma of saffron and rich, well-balanced coloring. If the aroma is a core concern, we highly recommend this particular cut of Persian saffron for your favorite dishes, desserts, or rock candy treats.
