Saffron is a precious, high labor intensive herb revered in the Middle East which has inspired the West over recent years regarding its health benefits. Saffron stamen are manually picked from the Crocus sativus flowers which yield a premium priced and highly aromatic spice, used commonly in Indian and other Middle Eastern cuisine. Saffron stamen carries a dark red pigment and in our Ultrasonic Extracted Tincture, you will appreciate a beautiful red-orange-gold.

I find my body and brain respond most notably at about 1 dropperful. My mood enhances, my environment feels more vibrant – I generally feel really good when I take Saffron. It’s quite a lovely herb with a sunny, uplifting & nourishing feeling – I’m very eager to be able to share this with our community!  Giving much gratitude for our Iranian source Mr. Mohamadi, whom has offered us this precious Saffron to extract, and to yield us to produce this fine tincture.
