Organic Saffron Grown in Monreal del Campo (Teruel)
Our saffron is grown in Monreal del Campo, a town located in the heart of the Jiloca Valley, an area with a long tradition of saffron cultivation. Harvesting takes place in autumn, when the flowers of the Crocus sativus open at dawn. Each flower contains only three red stigmas, which are extracted by hand and carefully dried to obtain the final spice.
This artisanal process explains why saffron is known as the "red gold" of gastronomy, a spice that adds aroma, color, and flavor to all kinds of recipes. Our own production is Certified Organic Saffron; we are pioneers in introducing saffron to the commercial channel, where the sustainable processes we apply in our production are clearly referenced.
