The best saffron is widely regarded to come from Iran, which produces around 90% of the world's supply. Iranian saffron is known for its deep red color, strong aroma, and rich flavor. Other notable sources include Spain, particularly the La Mancha region, and India, especially Kashmir, where saffron is also highly valued for its quality. Factors such as climate, soil, and traditional harvesting methods contribute to the distinctiveness of saffron from these regions.
