Sergol or Superngin saffron?
Really Sargol saffron or Super Nagin?! If you have ever seen Sargol and Supernangin saffron up close, you know that at first glance it may seem that they are very similar. Yes, it is the same. But I must say that Sargol and Supernagin are two types of saffron that have significant differences in terms of price and quality.
Supernangin and Sargol saffron look completely similar to a non-professional person, but if you pay attention to its appearance and check the chemical characteristics of these two types of saffron, you will realize that there are differences. These same differences lead to a considerable price difference between this Sargol and Super Nagin.
Appearance characteristics of Sargol saffron
Consider a branch of saffron. In the lower part of saffron, there is a cream or root part, which is white in color. Then, the saffron string will gradually turn orange and then red. As we move from the red part to the top of the stigmas, this red color becomes darker and darker. Sargol saffron is actually the red part of saffron, which does not include the orange or lighter part and the cream part.
Sargol saffron is broken and wrinkled. That is, if you pour some Sargol saffron on your palm, you will see that the saffron branches are not very smooth and the amount of broken stigmas is high. If you take a bunch of Sargol saffron with your hand and pour it little by little into a container, you will notice that the saffron branches are completely separated from each other and have no integrity.
Appearance characteristics of precious saffron
Super Nagin saffron is one of the members of Nagin saffron family. In fact, the best type of saffron family is Nagin, and the best saffron of the Nagin family is the Super Nagin type.
Unlike Sergol saffron, Negin saffron does not break or shrink. If you pour some precious saffron on your palm, you can see that the branches are smooth and not broken, or if there is a break, the amount is very small.
Gem saffron, like Sargol saffron, has separate strands from each other. But unlike Sargol saffron, it has a special integrity. That is, if you take some precious saffron with your hands and put it again in a container, you will see that they are separate from each other and not intertwined in some way.
Super precious saffron
Super Nagin saffron is the same as Nagin saffron, but it has been improved by several quality levels and it is better than Nagin saffron in the factors that we use to check saffron. Super precious saffron has large, smooth and separate threads. Super Nagin saffron is completely red and there is no yellowness, whiteness or any kind of impurity in it.
Is Sargol saffron better or SuperNagin saffron?
Once you are familiar with the appearance characteristics and differences of these two types of saffron, you can easily recognize these two types of saffron. Well, now we come to the answer to this question: is Sargol saffron better or Super Nagin saffron?
Super Nagin saffron has a higher quality than Sergol saffron and in a way its quality is much higher. The high price of Super Negin saffron is due to the difficulty of its processing and production. So we can say that Supernangin saffron is much more valuable than Sargol.
Super Nagin saffron is Iran’s export saffron and it is superior to all types of saffron in terms of its beauty and appearance. This type of saffron can be a valuable gift for those you love. Because the value of the gift should be proportional to the value of the recipient.
