Worlds leading supplier of the finest Persian saffron. Our saffron comes directly from our farmers in north-eastern Iran where the elusive blend of soil, topography, and climate produces crocus fields unlike anywhere else.
Zaran Saffron was founded in 2016 in Oceanside, California. We are a father-son operated business whose philosophy is simple: to produce and present products that people who value quality can truly appreciate. Our company’s goal is to identify and distribute the highest-grade saffron to individuals and suppliers around the world.
Our saffron comes straight from the Khorasan region in North-eastern Iran where the elusive blend of soil, topography, and climate produces crocus fields unlike anywhere else. Our Saffron is red in color with a vivid Crimson stigma and a strong, fresh aroma. Each pound requires around 225,000 delicate red strands to be handpicked from over 70,000 crocus sativa flowers.
Due to its highly labor intensive harvesting methods, Saffron has been labeled as the most expensive and sought after spice in the world, commonly known as “red gold.”
Service
We believe in providing our customers with the same attentiveness that our saffron tending partners provide to their crops. We are committed to not only providing the highest quality product, but the highest quality customer service as well. If you have any issues, let us know and we will personally reach out to help you. We want to make sure you feel like part of the Zaran family and help you enjoy the benefits of our saffron as much as we do.
Simplicity
Saffron is a high end spice that is making its way into modern dishes and drinks in high-end restaurants and households across the globe – you’re as likely to find it in a Michelin Star restaurant at the center of the city as you are to find it resting on the shelf in your own kitchen at home. We want our packaging to reflect the style of today’s world, whose beauty is found in its simplicity. That’s why we have given our packaging a modern and contemporary design which lets the spice’s elegance speak for itself.
