It is a dark, soft, fleshy and sweet date of medium size, about 2.5-4.5 cm (1-2 in), with a relatively high moisture content of between 32-35%, varying with the time of harvest and the location of the grove.
The pistachio Pistacia vera, a member of the cashew family, is a small tree originating from Central Asia and the Middle East. The tree produces seeds that are widely consumed as food.
Pistacia vera is often confused with other species in the genus Pistacia that are also known as pistachio. These other species can be distinguished by their geographic distributions (in the wild) and their seeds which are much smaller and have a soft shell.
In 2019, Iran and the United States combined produced 74% of the world's pistachios.
The pistachio Jumbo SA (Sabor Azafran) is the one of the best pistachio with 20-22 caliber.

Saffron is a spice derived from the flower of Crocus sativus, commonly known as the "saffron crocus". The vivid crimson stigma and styles, called threads, are collected and dried for use mainly as a seasoning and colouring agent in food. Saffron has long been the world's costliest spice by weight.
Although some doubts remain on its origin, it is believed that saffron originated in Iran. However, Greece and Mesopotamia have also been suggested as the possible region of origin of this plant. Saffron crocus slowly propagated throughout much of Eurasia and was later brought to parts of North Africa, North America, and Oceania.
Saffron's taste and iodoform-like or hay-like fragrance result from the phytochemicals picrocrocin and safranal. It also contains a carotenoid pigment, crocin, which imparts a rich golden-yellow hue to dishes and textiles. Its recorded history is attested in a 7th-century BC Assyrian botanical treatise and has been traded and used for thousands of years. In the 21st century, Iran produces some 90% of the world total for saffron
Saffron (Crocus sativus) is a plant. The dried thread-like parts of the flower (stigmas) are used to make saffron spice, food coloring, and medicine.
Saffron extract contains chemicals that might alter mood, kill cancer cells, decrease swelling, and act like antioxidants. It can take 75,000 saffron blossoms to produce a single pound of saffron spice. Saffron is largely cultivated in Iran and harvested by hand. It's one of the world's most expensive spices.
Blue Salt, or Persian Blue Salt is a unique and rare mineral found in the mountain ranges of Iran. This is one of the only places in the world that has Blue Salt. Persian Blue Salt is formed from an ancient sea that dried out 110 million ago, was buried over time, and then compacted by the Earth. When tectonic plate movement created the mountain ranges of Iran, the Blue Salt veins in the rock became exposed. Our Persian Blue Salt is mined from these mountains. Due to the fact that this salt is mined from a buried ancient sea, it is very clean and pure, it has not been exposed to any modern environmental pollutants or contaminants. Blue Salt is a natural product, the blue colour is a natural side effect from this salt structure being compact. This salt was under great pressure from the Earth and compacted to form tight crystal structure, this compact structure refracts the blue light, this is what makes blue salt blue.
Our Persian Blue Salt collection comes in a variety of grain sizes. They are fine, corse, small rock salt, and large crystal.
Persian blue salt is rich in potassium. Potassium helps reduce blood pressure and cardiovascular health. Potassium is also helpful for muscle strength and bone strength and can protect against loss of muscle mass. It is involved in some body's key processes and 4700 milligrams of it should be consumed for adults.
