The Saffron of the Pavia Hills is a prized spice that embodies the artisanal dedication and the richness of the Italian territory.
The differentiated morphological areas of the Pavia Hills give this saffron a unique and unmistakable character.
Saffron is presented in stigmas rather than in powder to ensure the highest quality and preserve the uniqueness of its flavor.
Every kilo of this saffron requires no less than 1000 hours of manual labor, resulting in a product of authentic freshness and absolute respect for nature.
The artisanal commitment of Zafferano Colline Pavesi begins with the manual harvesting of the flower at the first light of dawn.
The bulbs, which remain in the soil, are ready to be reborn with each new cycle, maintaining the richness of the territory.
The spice is obtained from the flower's stigmas, through a drying and selection process that preserves the unique quality of saffron.
In the Pavia Hills, among the vineyards and fields, a story of passion, discovery, and commitment is born: that of Zafferano Colline Pavesi, where the scent of saffron permeates the air.
Until 2012, saffron was an occasional guest in the family kitchens, reserved for Sunday risottos.
After a pleasant week of traveling in Sardinia, at the home of friends, the colorful fields and the women harvesting sparked a curiosity.
