This is my first try of a saffron, and it smells like shoe leather. Is it normal?

mine also didn't smell like saffron, perhaps it wasn't fresh , next time try buying from the store like trader joe's or home goods ( I got a great price from Home goods for Spanish or Greek saffron)

Is this really organic? I don't see that on the label. I got the 4 gram size.

Hi, The Green Leaf logo on the label is EU mark for Organic product and is on all Organic products which are certified in EU, Code below the logo indicate the place of origin. Which is ES for Spain.

What type of spanish saffron is this? la mancha or coupe or neither?

This is not Spanish saffron: coupe’, La Mancha or Cyrus.
