It has a fragrance but the taste is not good. It makes the food taste bad

I regularly use saffron in my cooking and after buying it from the supermarket for years I was really excited to try this and see how it compared.The product was well presented and had a neat little cardboard carton. Within was a small clear plastic jar with a lid, filled with the saffron.The saffron was strikingly a deep red/orange colour. It was super vibrant, especially compared to the supermarket versions. On reading the listing, this seller indicates that they utilise the higher quality saffron and detail how the vibrancy of the colour indicates the quality.As it looked more appealing I just had to try it. It tasted a single strand and was instantly blow away but the strength and depth of the flavour, which also lingered a little afterwards but in a pleasant way. I have tried supermarket versions in this manner previously and thought it just tasted nice, whereby this product competitively really sings.I cannot wait to use this in my cooking as the flavour and quality is superior to the high street sellers. I was so eager I made myself a cup of saffron tea using 8 strands in a cup of hot water and a little dash of honey. It was incredible.I cannot recommend this product highly enough. It is superb.

Comes in beautifully packaging and really makes the difference to a dish. It’s astonishing how just a small petal or two can have such a magic effect !Amazing stuff great quality

The name "Ahura" and all the design and branding would give the impression of this being Iranian saffron, but there is no statement whatsoever about the provenance, neither on the packaging nor on this product page, nor on the company's website either. It makes me suspicious that it's really Spanish. Why would you not mention it loudly if it really was a high quality Iranian saffron?It declares itself as being grade 1-A, but with Iranian saffron you usually see terms like "pushal", "sargol", "negin" and "super negin" for the various grades.It crumbles really easily when you rub it, dry and brittle, more like a cheaper saffron and not like you would expect with a high quality saffron. The colour given to rice is OK, but the aroma and taste are really weak for a supposed "grade 1-A" saffron.In short, every single impression this gives me is of a lesser quality saffron claiming to be superior, sold at an inflated price. It's really not a match for any of the several good quality brands of "super negin" Iranian saffron at a similar price to this which I have tried.
