Saffron pack from the year 1984 This is a review of a beautiful small round shape pack of Original Saffron In Japanese language the name of Saffron is : サフロン　= which reads; sa'fu'ron, and in Arabic language Saffron is: زعفران = which reads: za'fa'ran. This pack is from the year 1984 which can be read (in Persian/ Arabic) on the yellow strap, and I still have it all these years (exactly as shown), in a safe place. It was a gift.
