The story of this tin
From the farm to your shelf in under a week.
From the grower
We buy Sargol Saffron directly, one harvest at a time, and pay ahead of the season so the growers are not waiting on a broker. Every lot is tasted at the shop before it goes on the shelf.
How we pack it
Whole spices stay whole until the week you order. We grind on Mondays, fill the tins by hand and stamp the grind date on every lid, so you always know how fresh it is.
Keeping it bright
Store the tin closed, away from the stove and out of the light. Ground spice is at its best for about three months; whole spice keeps for a year.
