"The owner was super nice and helpful and let me sample by touch and smell the Persian Saffron I was looking for before purchase. It was practically a pure red and I don't think any dies were used. This, compared with the really low price of less than $60/ounce might make \"Super Arzon\" the definitive local place to obtain genuine Persian Saffron, also saving on high shipping and import fees."^^ .
