Known as one of the most expensive spices in the world, there's much about saffron that Western cultures often misunderstand. This week on Beyond the Shelf, we spoke with the CEO & Co-Founder of Heray Spice, Mohammad Salehi.

We are excited to announce that our processing facility center in Herat Afghanistan is back open.After 4 months, we finally recalled some of our partners and employees and opened our office and facility.

We are thrilled to announce that Heray Spice partnered with Pasha International, a family-owned local business in central New Jersey. We want to make sure our customers can access Heray Saffron across the country though mission-driven companies like Pasha.
