Sargol saffron is considered as pure saffron, since the yellow part is not found at all in it and only the red stigmas are separated. The use of Sargol saffron is more common than other types of saffron.
It is difficult to determine the quality of Sargol and is evaluated by two criteria: “stigma length” and “absence of load-bearing white patches”.
This saffron is the second most expensive saffron in Iran. It contains the upper part of the saffron flower and is divided into several subgroups.
Ordinary sargol saffron is usually used for packaging and its flowers are weaker than the Super Sargol Saffron , however both of them have same color quality.
