Saffron Strands
Pampore Kashmiri Kesar, sourced from the fertile fields of Pampore in Kashmir—often referred to as the "Saffron Town"—is renowned for its exceptional quality. Cultivated with meticulous care, this saffron is a cornerstone of Kashmiri agriculture and a symbol of cultural pride, with around 80% of Pampore's agricultural land dedicated to its production.
This precious spice undergoes a labor-intensive cultivation process that is steeped in tradition and refined over generations. The intense color, rich flavor, and aromatic fragrance of Kashmiri Kesar make it a sought-after ingredient globally. Its cultivation peaks with the vibrant Saffron Picking Festival, an event that celebrates the harvest and the region's deep-rooted connection to this ancient spice.
