Sargol Saffron
Sargol saffron consists of only the red stigmas of the saffron flower, with no yellow or white parts. It is known for its strong aroma, rich color, and high quality. Due to its purity, it has excellent coloring power and is one of the most popular types of saffron for culinary and medicinal uses.
Negin Saffron
Negin saffron is a premium variety that features long, unbroken stigmas without any yellow parts. It is considered the highest quality saffron due to its rich color, strong fragrance, and excellent flavor. This type is highly valued in international markets and is often used in gourmet cooking and luxury products.
Pushal Saffron
Pushal saffron includes both the red stigma and a small portion of the yellow style, making it slightly heavier than pure saffron. While its coloring strength is lower than Sargol or Negin, it has a strong aroma and is often preferred for its natural appearance. This type of saffron is commonly used in traditional dishes and herbal remedies.
Dasteh (Bunched) Saffron
Dasteh saffron, also known as “Dokhtar-Pich,” is the most natural form of saffron, consisting of the entire stigma along with the yellow style. It is tied in bundles and dried, preserving the flower’s original structure. While its coloring power is lower than other types, it retains the full aroma and benefits of saffron, making it ideal for traditional and medicinal uses.
White Saffron (Konj or Root Saffron)
White saffron, also known as Konj or saffron root, is the pale yellow or white part of the saffron stigma. It does not have the same coloring power as red saffron, but it still carries the fragrance and some medicinal benefits. It is often used in herbal medicine and natural remedies.
