Collection: Spices & Herbs
All our spices are hand-picked and slow dried at low temperature in order to retain all flavours and fragrance.
Our producer is a leading company in the production of saffron in Italy and occupies a prominent place in the production of other organic Sardinian spices, including oregano, chilli pepper, and myrtle as well. The Picchedda family started their current business in 1995 having grown saffron for at least four generations before that, with saffron bulbs passed down from generation to generation.
A close-knit and harmonious family, they are based in Turri, a small town in Southern Sardinia famous for the best saffron bulbs (crocus sativus) and the ancient cultivation of saffron.
The region is one of only three municipalities of Sardinia that cultivates the famous DOP (Protected Denomination of Origin) Saffron of Sardinia.
The Picchedda family is also one of the "Giants of Sardinia"; the Sardinian producers, part of our food trip that we organise every year in Sardegna.
