Super Negin saffron is uniformly composed of thick, long, completely flat, and all red stigmas of saffron and is known as the most expensive type of Persian saffron due to its high quality.
Negin saffron is also has a high quality, but its stigmas are not as large as the Super Negin saffron. Negin saffron is qualitatively higher than other types of saffron.
Sargol saffron is also completely composed of stigmas but has shorter saffron stigmas. In addition that depending on its quality, broken saffron stigmas may be seen in it.
When producing Pushal saffron, saffron stigmas plus a part of its cream are separated. Pushal saffron strands of this type of saffron are curly.
