Saffron Tea
[INQ. NO. 2512C02] Saffron Tea represents the company’s flagship beverage line, featuring both traditional brewed tea and liquid tea formats designed to deliver saffron’s health benefits conveniently for daily consumption. The product utilizes carefully selected saffron stigmas steeped to extract the spice’s natural compounds, offering consumers an accessible way to experience saffron’s renowned properties throughout their everyday routines.
Saffron has been used for centuries in culinary applications and traditional medicine, earning its reputation as “red gold” in global markets due to its exceptional value and rarity.
Recent wellness trends have spotlighted saffron for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as its potential mood-stabilizing effects, making it increasingly popular among health-conscious consumers seeking natural functional ingredients.
The tea products minimize artificial additives during manufacturing to emphasize their value as pure natural products. Premium packaging and product imagery are specifically designed to meet Japanese consumers’ aesthetic preferences and quality standards, reflecting the sophisticated tastes of the target market where attention to detail and premium presentation significantly influence purchasing decisions.

Saffron Caviar
Saffron Caviar introduces an innovative approach to consuming premium spices, targeting consumers who seek novel ways to enjoy high-grade ingredients.
This distinctive product represents the company’s creative interpretation of traditional saffron applications, offering a unique culinary experience that differentiates it from conventional saffron products in the marketplace and appeals to adventurous food enthusiasts.
The product caters to Japan’s growing demand for natural ingredients with functional health benefits. Market reports indicate rapid growth in saffron-based supplements and functional food markets within Japan, where the spice has emerged as a key ingredient driving healthy food trends.
Consumer interest in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients continues to strengthen across Japanese wellness sectors, particularly among demographics prioritizing preventive health measures.

Saffron Honey
Saffron Honey combines the world’s finest saffron with domestically produced Namyangju honey, representing Korea’s first honey product manufactured using saffron as its primary ingredient. The company developed a proprietary manufacturing method after successfully importing top-grade saffron directly from Iran, the world’s primary saffron production region. The product exclusively uses supreme-grade saffron with crocin content exceeding 250 and top-quality wildflower honey from pristine regions with carbon isotope ratios below negative 23.5 percent.
The manufacturing process overcame the technical challenge of crocin not mixing naturally with honey by developing specialized steeping and fermentation techniques that preserve both flavor and aroma.
Saffron’s premium positioning stems from its entirely manual harvesting and processing requirements, making it more expensive than truffles or caviar and earning its classification among gold-priced luxury spices globally.
Obtaining one gram of saffron requires manually drying approximately 500 stigmas from crocus flowers, with the delicate red pistils requiring careful hand-processing to maintain quality. Demanding climate and soil conditions further complicate saffron cultivation, contributing to its exceptional market value and limited global availability.
The company has developed Saffron Rice and Saffron Water Kimchi, expanding its product portfolio to satisfy diverse consumer preferences while maintaining focus on health and taste simultaneously.
These innovative food products demonstrate the company’s commitment to applying saffron across various culinary applications beyond traditional uses, challenging conventional boundaries of how this precious spice can enhance everyday meals.

Seopirang conducts collaborative research with farming communities in Yeongyang, Gyeongbuk Province, working toward localizing saffron cultivation to reduce import dependency and establish sustainable domestic production. The company pursues market expansion into China and Japan with its diversified product range, recognizing these markets’ appreciation for premium natural ingredients.
Founded in 2018, Seopirang established an exclusive domestic import contract with Goha Saffron, Iran’s premier saffron producer, immediately upon establishment. The company launched saffron tea as its first product in 2020, subsequently entering Happy Department Store before expanding distribution to Lotte Department Store Gangnam and Korea Sale Festa events, progressively building its retail presence.
The company emphasizes providing supreme quality products despite challenges small and medium enterprises face exporting food products with limited brand recognition in international markets.
Through developing diverse product lines and maintaining uncompromising quality standards, the company prepares to establish itself as a premium K-brand in the wellness food sector, aiming beyond simple exports toward spreading saffron-based healthy lifestyles internationally.
