We sourced our extraordinary Saffron from Peace & Plenty Farm in Northern California, run by Melinda Price and Simon Avery. Through careful stewardship of the land, they've planted thousands of shrubs and trees - leaving some of the land wild to promote the natural habitat. They've built a regenerative ecological environment with microorganism-rich soil and diverse plant life for their pollinators and bird populations. In their fields, they employ no-till methods, cover cropping (to sequester carbon), never use herbicides and pesticides, and are CCOF organic certified. Interestingly, Saffron has low water requirements, and no irrigation is needed from June to October, and in years of rain, it's not watered at all. The precious Saffron crop is propagated, cultivated, weeded, and harvested by hand without mechanization. We are truly honored to offer this special Saffron harvest from this remarkable duo.
Flamingo Estate is a home for radical pleasure — a place to bathe, eat, and bask in nature's most precious ingredients.
Sultry, sensual, passionate. Fit for royalty. I can’t really recommend it for most teas since it tends to overpower the flavor but taken on its own or with dessert or yoghurt? Amazing.
This Saffron honey tastes like sheer luxury! You don’t need much for it to give an abundance of flavor to a ricotta toast or any creative way you like to eat it. It’s simply rich in taste with a deep burnt orange color of the saffron.
Absolutely delicious! My favorite!
This honey is beyond delicious. I have been putting it on everything. I cooked icelandic cod with blood oranges and drizzled some on top before baking. I made shrimp with saffron sauce and sauteed the shrimp in olive oil and this saffron honey. Better yet, I drizzle it on Greek yogurt and berries for breakfast, and Baked Lemon ricotta for dessert. Up your honey game with this stuff... It's expensive, but it's worth it for the size of the jar (huge) and uniqueness of flavor. Highly recommend!
Fantastic!
