Saffron

Saffron, Coupe Grade Spanish

Not always available because of its rarity, this is the highest quality of saffron from the top country of origin. All the threads have been hand-selected to contain only the red, or most flavorful, threads.

This "coupe" grade has powerful coloring properties. Due to its extremely rare nature, we were able to entice Julia Child into opening a one-pound tin for us during one of her visit's to Milwaukee. Immediately upon opening, the exotic scent of these delicate flowers filled the air with their rare perfume, enchanting all of us! A signed tin remains with us as a memento of her visit.

Although the tins are beautiful, they hold one whole pound of coupe grade saffron and cost $2000 dollars. The one gram quantity comes in an air-tight jar. For larger quantites, please call for availability. (The superior grade saffron is available in a one-ounce tin.)

Your lips drop sweetness like honeycomb by a bride, syrup and milk are under your tongue, and your dress has the scent of Lebanon, Your cheeks are an orchard of pomegranates, an orchard full of rare fruits, spikenard and saffron, sweet cane and cinnamon.
