Saffron is the world’s most expensive spice because approximately 180,000 flowers are needed to produce just 1 kilogram over an area the size of a soccer field. Its benefits are numerous: it helps combat chronic fatigue, is used in depression treatment, and has been known since ancient times for its aphrodisiac properties. Saffron can be added to foods and beverages and the highest quality Iranian saffron is available at Ebrişem Art House in its special packaging.
