Comparison of our Quality to other brands
Shyaamashyam BRAND SAFFRON OTHER SAFFRON QUALITY
Threads Extra long and thick threads that expand even further on soaking / steeping Are often smaller, thinner and broken that do not expand as much during soaking
Colour Deep red in colour with NO yellow content – signifying very high colouring power Ranges from dark reddish brown to orange / yellow indicating the use of floral wastage-low colouring power
Aroma Very Intense Saffron nose with high floral top notes Lacking in intensity and with little to no floral top notes
Flavour Only a fraction of the threads are required to create the desired flavour profiles More threads are required to create the same degree of flavour but can also result in off notes
Packaging Saffron threads are protected from moisture and air by sealing in a unique foil pack and high quality hinged box Lower Quality packaging allows air and moisture to penetrate the threads, resulting in a lack of freshness and further deterioration of quality.
