Sirwa brand

Moroccan Saffron is not readily available in the United States as are the larger producing countries' saffron. Moroccan Saffron production is small in comparison with the other major players in the international saffron market such as Iran, Spain and India. However, Morocco produces saffron of exceptional quality. Tourists and saffron dealers in Europe, especially Italy and France purchase much of the crop upon its harvest. Rarely is the crop large enough for exporting.

The small town of Taliouine, Morocco's "Saffron Capital", as it has been dubbed, attracts thousands of tourists and sightseers each year in October and November to visit, in awe, the seemingly endless fields of saffron. Taliouine is a town situated between two mountain chains. Saffron grows best at higher altitudes (1,200 to 2,000m). The finest Moroccan saffron is grown near the Sirwa Mountain in Taliouine and is known as Sirwa brand.

The Moroccan saffron we are offering to you is from the 2010 crop and is Sirwa brand. This saffron is 100% pure and has dark red/purple threads with only minute amounts of yellow. If you have enjoyed our Persian/Iranian saffron, you will love our Moroccan saffron.
