What the judges had to say: "These saffron threads have been beautifully prepared and you can see they've been picked with care. Long, unbroken strands. The strands dry have an authentic medicinal, slightly honeyed aroma. Once steeped the deep, golden yellow develops beautifully releasing the honey flavour. Clean and aromatic - not bitter or musty. Fresh and fragrant. This is stunning example of saffron - simply beautiful." What the judges had to say: "What glorious strands of saffron, bright, vibrant and aromatic. Produced a vibrant glorious colour that sang of saffron. Fantastic strands." "Gosh look at those colour strands! Beautifully prepared strands, care has clearly gone into the harvest. An equally vibrant liquid is produced.
