Saffron - Spanish La Mancha

Hand-picked stigmas from a blue-violet autumn crocus, Spanish Saffron is the most expensive spice in the world. These delicate stigmas are a vibrant red-orange, and provide a tenacious aroma, with a bitter but highly aromatic flavour, and impart a brilliant golden colour.

Essential in authentic Spanish cuisine, Saffron is also used in bouillabaisse, risotto, and cakes.
