Mongra Saffron is a premium-grade Kashmiri saffron (Crocus sativus), hand-harvested at high-altitude farms at 1,800m in the Himalayas.
The Mongra designation refers to one of the most prized grades of Kashmiri saffron, distinguished by its deep colour, rich aroma, and concentrated potency.
In Ayurvedic terms, Mongra Saffron is considered clarifying without aggravation.
