Organic Kashmiri Saffron
History of Organic Kashmiri Saffron
According to historical evidence, saffron was introduced in the country by Persian rulers around 500 BC. Once the Persian rulers conquered Kashmir, they planted the Persian Saffron crocus corms in the soil and that's how it grew until now.
Cultivation of Pure & Organic Kashmiri Saffron
Pure and authentic Kashmiri Saffron is collected from the blossoms of Crocus sativus (Iridaceae), commonly known as saffron crocus or saffron bulbs. It is propagated by bulbs called corms which are planted on a virgin piece of land.
Thousands of fully grown and bloomed saffron flowers are harvested very often in the morning hours and brought to the “stripping” area.
After the flowers are brought to the stripping area, the stigmas or threads are very carefully removed manually and painstakingly and kept aside till it is done on each saffron flower.
Variants of Pure and Organic Kashmiri Saffron
There are particularly four variants of pure and organic Kashmiri Saffron. The full strand found inside the saffron/kesar flower with a red top and yellow button is called lacha, being the first variant. One saffron/kesar flower contains three lacha strands that are handpicked by unprivileged farmers for days together.
It shares the same miraculous benefits as a full mongra strand, called the broken saffron being the third variant. Zarda Saffron is just the tail of red filament from the flower which is found at the bottom of saffron lacha, thus the fourth variant of saffron.
