Safran Nantiat Limousin

Trained as an urban planner, Noël Dussac has been running the family estate for seven generations: "This spice grows very well in Limousin soil. The climate is very favorable, and the south-facing plantations are protected by an avenue of redwood trees," he explains. He has opted for small, individual packs of just a few grams. On sale at the Relais des Étangs restaurant in Nantiat. The restaurant serves scallops with Limousin saffron.
