Summary |
Kate Humble's journey takes her from the Atlas Mountains of Morocco to the plains of Spain as she uncovers the story of the world's most expensive spice, saffron. In the mountains, Kate joins local saffron farmer Ahmed and his family to harvest their crop and visits a stunning store house carved into the mountainside. In Spain, Kate turns detective as she joins a blind tasting to sort out genuine saffron from the fakes. The final leg of Kate's epic trip takes her across the Atlantic to Mexico in search of vanilla, a spice discovered by the famous Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortes.
