Saffron
Saffron was a rare and expensive spice produced from the @cro flower.
Places in the Realms where one could find saffron being produced or sold include: Smallwood, Glynvald, Tusson, and Carcassonne , as the spice is almost exclusively produced in Carcassonne
Saffron was used as both a spice and a spell component. It was one ingredient in the ointment required for the true seeing spell. It was also one of the components in a specialized Zakharan ritual used to summon air spirits called sakina.
Saffron was said to be useful in treating measles.
As a spell component, 4 ounces (113 grams) of ground saffron was sold for 4 gold pieces. As a spice, 1 ounce (28 grams) of whole saffron was sold for 45 gold pieces, making it the most expensive on offer. In general, 1 pound (0.45 kilograms) of saffron as a trade good might go for 15 gold pieces
