Buy Hard to Find Bunch Saffron Online at Slofoodgroup

Hard to find but perfect for those that love saffron and all it properties.  Considered a lower grade of saffron by many, bunch saffron consists of the whole saffron flower filament including the full stigma and style.  From the very tip of deep red tops known as sargol, down to the negin saffron (the top of the thread that is red just down to the orange) and the remaining style of yellow to white is the bunch.  Internationally, most saffron that is sold is only the red filament but traditionally the full filament is used in many countries and regions that actually grow saffron.
