About
Saffron is the most expensive spice in the world and being an object of desire it has always been a victim of fraud. Low quality saffron is often traded on international markets, and the specifications for pure saffron are not always respected. The value of this spice has made it a target for adulteration throughout the ages. At Hamdan, we ensure that each and every strand of saffron sold passes the quality check. The precious deep red threads lend dishes a subtle but luxurious fragrance, flavour, and bright golden colour. Saffron threads are the dried stigmas of the Crocus sativus L. plant, a cultivar of the iris family.
