The story of Sari Safran begins in Moscow. There Anush and Urs met – they from Armenia, he from Switzerland, she businesswoman, he photographer. That was in 1997. They get married, start a family. They have lived in Switzerland since 2008. In the summer, there we go to Armenia, to Anush’s roots. And because it’s so beautiful, Urs says. There are wonderful landscapes, a rich culture, a long history. You buy a house, agricultural land. The house is renovated, converted into a guesthouse. One would like to bring the beautiful country closer to holiday guests. But there are also the many unemployed women. How could they be given work? Growing wine? There is a lack of know-how – and above all of water. The idea of growing saffron is the first in Armenia to emerge. Of course, saffron is known here, Iran is not far away. The grandmother used it to dye carpets, Anush recalls, but cooked, no. Saffron tastes wonderful. And it also thrives on barren soil. Sari Safran: sustainable and social Urs and Anush also found Urs together with a good friend. He accompanied them to Armenia in 2008. Again the following year. After I really got to know the country and its people, it happened to me, he says. The idea becomes concrete: high-quality saffron, organically produced for the Swiss market. That is one goal. The other, equally important: helpers should be paid fairly and actively support their families.After Swiss determination and hard work, Sari Safran achieved - Saffron, Category 1: Classification as Category 1 saffron is due to pre-sunrise harvesting, careful processing and slow drying. The effort is worth it. In late autumn 2018, the first full harvest reaches Switzerland, where it is carefully stored and packaged. Sari saffron is saffron for the highest demands, which is also confirmed by top chefs. Yes, the love, the care that is in it, plays a role in this. But the most important thing is that it gives a lot of pleasure: the producers and helpers, the cooks and the connoisseurs.
