    Most Indian grocery stores carry it, try whole foods.....their products are usually of very good quality.

    Saffron from kashmir is really very good.I have tried spanish as well as iranian but d quality and aroma of saffron from kashmir is great :thumbsup. I took it in my previous pregnancy and it helped me alot for digestion and may be color of the baby 2(My daughter is fairer than me :))...
