From the Herat of Afghanistan

In recent decades, Afghanistan has emerged as a global leader in saffron production. Following years of conflict, farmers in Afghanistan turned to saffron cultivation as a sustainable and profitable alternative to poppy farming. This shift has not only boosted the economy but also positioned Afghan saffron as a symbol of hope and resilience.
Today, Afghanistan is one of the top saffron-producing countries, renowned for its high-quality, organic saffron. The Herat region, in particular, is celebrated for producing saffron with deep red threads, intense aroma, and rich flavor.
