Pure Sea Salt, New Zealand

Certified organic in New Zealand, this versatile salt is harvested from the ultra pure waters of the Southern Ocean using a natural process of sun and wind. A high magnesium and calcium content gives this salt a clear, pure taste. The currents sweep up the East Coast of New Zealand and into the Solar Salt field located right at the top of the South Island.

Bonaire Sea Salt, Bonaire, Caribbean


Although the small island of Bonaire, lacked many of the resources that made other Caribbean colonies prosperous, however it did have one precious commodity… SALT! This valuable salt was a necessary ingredient for preserving meat and fish.





Piran Adriatic Sea Salt, Slovenia, Eastern Europe

Hand gathered from salt pans located within the protected Secovlje Nature Park using 14th century methods, this 100% artisan salt, which was once the centerpiece of the medieval Venetian salt trade, is today deemed a protected national treasure and granted the prestigious D.O.P. status, (D.O.P stands for Denominazione Origine Protetta). In the abundance of different kinds of high-quality salts, Piran salt is one of the most prominent as it is cultivated according to the method of more than 700 years ago.


The Sečovlje salt pans are the northernmost still functioning salt pans in the Mediterranean area and one of the few salt pans in the world where salt is produced after several centuries-old processes originating from at least the 14th century. Their speciality is that the salt pan workers cultivate petola (a 2 cm thick layer of algae, gypsum and minerals) at the bottom of the crystallization ponds.


This is a biosediment which prevents the sea mud merging with the salt and gives the salt numerous microelements and minerals necessary for the human organism. It is cultivated completely through natural crystallization using their bare hands, using the tools and procedures of their ancestors. During salt-making, traditional tools are used. The produced salt is raked with wooden scrapers into heaps on slopes with natural inclination for the surplus water to trickle away. Dry salt is then gathered manually, transported with little wagons and stored in special depots.

Halen Mon Flake Sea Salt, Wales, UK

Harvested from the clean Atlantic waters surrounding the Welsh island of Anglesey using a combination of traditional methods and cutting-edge technology, Halen Môn is the only producer of organically certified sea salt in the United Kingdom.

Arabian Sea Yellow Sea Salt, India

Monsoon rainwater collects underground where carotene secreted from Algae in the water gives this salt its unique light and delicate pale yellow color. It is harvested by hand and then left under the hot Indian sun to evaporate..

Atlantic Sea Salt, Portugal

The salt is being harvested in the traditional way by hand. It is done by a small private salt-maker with love for the salt.

The area where the salt extracted is located between Lisbon and Porto in a lagoon near the seaside resort of Figueira da Foz where the Mondego river flows into the Atlantic Ocean. The area is also known as the Salt Gardens of Mondego. The total area is only 700 hectares.

In the year 900 the salt pans were constructed and can be found in documents from 1178 from records of Don Afonso Henriques.

In the 16th century, the Portuguese sea salt was very popular among merchants from Holland, England, Germany and Scandinavia.This much purer and brighter salt was preferred to the grey Baien salt from the French Atlantic coast.

Ibiza Sea Salt, Ibiza, Baleares, Spain

For over 2,700 years, a sea-salt of premium quality has been harvested in the saline fields on the Mediterranean island of Ibiza. The island's inhabitants have always been and still are very proud of their wholly-natural marine salt, regarded as one of the best of its kind. Ibiza salt is a superb table salt product, made of 100% sea-salt of the highest possible quality. Ibiza salt is harvested exclusively in the nature reserve “Parc natural de ses Salines d’Eivissa”. It contains no additives or preservatives, nor does it undergo any form of refinement other than slow drying under the sun and gentle grinding in ancient stone mills, enabling this Ibiza salt to retain its more than 80 vital minerals and trace-elements.

Produced solely using traditional artisan methods and dried by the sun.

Celtic Sea Salt, France

Produced since Celtic times (and also known as Celtic Sea Salt) this versatile and well-known salt has a mild taste and high mineral content. Certified organic in France, the salt's grey color comes from the natural clay that lines the beds of the revered Brittany salt pans where it is harvested. The acids in the clay soil purify the seawater in a natural way and the salt is created with more minerals from the clay bottom than that of a sandy bottom salt pan.

Brittany as the least polluted seacoast and the Celtic method as the best for harvesting of natural salt for the following reasons:

1) This coastline has almost no industry and no large cities.

2) The prevalent wind dries and crystallizes the salt very rapidly, thus minimizing the accumulation of particulate matter.

3) The deep offshore drop and continental shelf create upwellings that bring minerals from great ocean depths. The resulting salt contains rare trace elements in a very energetic mix.

4) There are abundant and varied beds of seaweeds and micro-algae that contribute to the biologically rich make-up of the shore, and therefore of the salt. 

5) The art of Celtic salt-making has been passed down in this place for literally a hundred generations offering a superior philosophy and mastery of the craft.

Atlantic Sea Salt, Cape Cod Massachusetts, USA

Sea salt has played a huge role in the history of Cape Cod.  During the American Revolution an embargo was placed on imported salts, which had a major effect on food preservation and salted fish production.  The government encouraged Cape Codders to find an effective way to make their own salt, which lead to the design of the saltworks by Captain John Sears of East Dennis.  The production of sea salt on Cape Cod became so successful that by 1837 there were 658 saltworks, yielding 26,000 tons of sea salt each year.  When refrigeration was created it replaced the need for salt-preserved foods, marking the end of the Cape Cod sea salt era. This salt is as pure and simple as life on the Cape, the way it should be. 

Icelandic Sea Salt, Iceland

A beautiful salt crafted by master salt makers using traditional 17th Century Icelandic methods updated with a modern twist.

In the northern part of Iceland, the westfjords, on the Reykjanes peninsula is the Greenland Sea, one of the purest atlantic waters.

By outfitting old abandoned fish farms with futuristic technology and utilizing the power of a geyser in production, Saltverk is the world’s first geothermally produced salt. The result is ethereally light and crunchy flakes, high in essential minerals with an unusually high level of purity.

Pangasinan Sea Salt, Philippines

Hand-crafted in small batches during a very short season from the clear waters of Pangasinan province by artisan salt-makers with generations of experience. This is a beautiful, full-bodied finishing salt that gets its pale pink color from the Sugpo Shrimp that inhabit the salt ponds and a unique effect on the palate which derives from a rare combination of both fleur de sel flakes that melt in the mouth and hollow, geometric crystals.


Norwegian Sea Salt, Gossen Island, Norway

We are a family business on the island Gossen in the northwest of Norway. Our goal is to revive and reinterpret Norway`s century-old production of one of the world`s most important minerals - Sea Salt. Building on traditions from the Viking Age, North Sea Salt Works produces sea salt of the highest purity and outstanding taste using 100% renewable energy and sustainable production processes. Our unique brand of sea salt flakes - HAVSNØ is derived from the cool, pure seawater of Saltsteinsleia in the Norwegian Sea. The mineral content of the cool and pure sea water makes the crystalline, white flakes of Havsnø smooth and soft with a slightly crispy consistency. The salt has a strong salty, but pure taste, without being bitter - this is due to the natural trace elements.


North Sea Salt Works manufactures sea salt of the highest purity and outstanding taste, using 100% renewable energy and sustainable production processes, based on Viking traditions.


New Zealand Sea Salt, Clifford Bay

Everything a good sea salt needs can be found in New Zealand and Clifford Bay: lots of sunshine, warm winds and clear, clear sea water. Strong ocean currents permeate the deep, clear waters of New Zealand. The lagoon in Clifford Bay is a geographic blessing. Antarctic purity with all its many minerals is found again in the delicate Clifford Bay sea salt flakes. A real sea salt is natural and free of any additives. The next significant land mass is the Antarctic. The current flows from the South Pole through the Clifford Bay and brings pure, clear sea water. On board are all the natural minerals and trace elements that our body loves and health too.


Salt from the purest waters in the world. A sea salt of the highest purity. It contains essential minerals and trace elements such as iron, magnesium, potassium, selenium.


Icelandic Sea Salt #2

In all our processes and at all stages of our salt making, we use geothermal energy. Our production process involves a minimum of mechanical intervention and makes use of natural geothermal energy for heating the seawater, evaporating and drying the Nordur Salt flakes.


From the beginning, we have set a high bar in ensuring that our production facility is as environmentally friendly as possible. As far as we know, we are the only flake salt company in the world that uses geothermal energy to fuel our process. Our carbon footprint is virtually nil, something that we are especially proud of.


We start by filtering the seawater before it enters our evaporation tank to ensure the highest quality of the sea salt. In the filtering process only dirt and leftover seaweed is removed and the salt maintains its natural mineral content. We then lead geothermal hot water through the tank via a titanium heat exchanger while we constantly pump fresh seawater into it. Inside the tank, the seawater evaporates and the salinity level increases. When the brine has reached the right salinity level, it is transferred to open pans. It is slowly heated again using geothermal energy allowing the salt crystals to form as pyramids on the surface. The salt pyramids grow upside down and when they have reached a sufficient size they fall to the bottom.


At this stage, the true art form of our salt making begins; the human touch is a vital factor as the salt is hand harvested to precisely ensure the right taste and texture. Once the salt flakes have been raked from the pans, they are dried using geothermal heating. Then, it is on to the packaging stage and the salt flakes are ready to be enjoyed.


Atlantic Sea Salt, La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain

The mud sticks to the rock to hold the crystalline waters of the Atlantic Ocean, of which small dense drops of salt are formed. Labyrinths of rock, where small mounts of salt are placed in the passageways between the crystallizing ponds.


On the bottom of the different basins and pans a variety of colours can be seen: pink, white, yellow…giving life to various small micro organisms and crustaceans such as Dunaliella salina and Artemia salina which attract migrating waders that feed in these waters: plovers, dunlins, sandpipers, turnstones, even flamencos and white shelducks have landed in this spot.


This magical spot, born in the arms of the volcanoes San Antonio and Teneguía is able to transform water into small diamonds; mud and stone into pink and white colours, forming a contrast with the darker shades of the volcanic soil; the wind into small whispers of energy that bring many birds a place to rest in the salt pans and the sun that goes up and down, bringing heat all day long.


The waters of the Atlantic, the heat of the sun, the volcanic soil and the trade winds are the four elements that play together to give life to the white, crystalline petals of the salt blossom, carefully collected in the traditional way. In this way the Salt Blossom, collected from the salt pans of Fuencaliente is presented to the world. A flower born at dusk.


At dusk in the warm summer days when the trade winds retreat towards the ocean, the fine layers of salt are collected before they can sink to the bottom. This needs a lot of care by the person who collects it and a tool, called a “cedazo” in the shape of a large sieve. This way we can preserve the valuable qualities of this blossom: all the minerals and trace elements that the sea brings forth. The main asset of this product is its low content of sodium and high content of magnesium, giving it a special, softer taste.


Atlantic Sea Salt, Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain

On the steepest and wild coast of Lanzarote, beaten by the strong waves of the southwest of the island, burned by the sun and caressed by the trade winds, the thin sheets of iridescent crystals of the Fleur de Sal de Janubio are obtained, following traditional methods and handcrafts of an active salt mill since 1895. The volcanic nature of the enclave, at the foot of the Timanfaya National Park, gives this saline product a deep and evocative marine flavor.


For more than a century, water from the Atlantic Ocean and the sun are the two ingredients used in the Salinas de Janubio to produce sea salt by artisanal methods, resulting in, at the same time, a landscape that is considered an authentic garden of salt.


Atlantic Sea Salt, Fuerteventura, Canary Islands, Spain

Large salt flakes with relatively high residual moisture. The perfect salt; you can still feel the sea while grinding the crystals.


The pure sea salt of Fuerteventura is completely natural. Without additives, only sun wind and sea are the ingredients for the sea salt of the Canaries.



Irish Sea Salt, Ireland.jpeg

Irish Sea Salt, Ireland

Irish Atlantic Sea Salt is based in a highly coveted location, with access to the Grade A quality waters of the Beara Peninsula. Lickbarrahan, where Irish Atlantic Salt is produced, sits on the most south westerly point of Ireland. The peninsula stretches out into the vast Atlantic Ocean, where the waters are notably unpolluted and crystal clear. Irish Atlantic Sea Salt is a high quality salt due to the quality of the sea water from which it is produced.

Table salt usually comes from salt mines or the sea and is a highly refined product. Table salt is extremely processed and contains additives such as aluminium (a toxic substance), drying agents and anti-caking agents. Table salt is produced by heating or scorching salt at a very high temperature to remove any moisture. Once the salt is scorched and all moisture is removed, what is left is an unnatural product that is hard on the body. Table salt can also be produced by a man made evaporation process involving intense heat and processing the salt crystals to reach a standard of desired quality. Anti caking agents, additives and preservatives are also added to the salt during this process. Iodine is usually added to table salt, the iodine that is added is usually synthetic, which can be difficult for our bodies to process. 

Irish Atlantic Sea Salt on the other hand is unprocessed, unrefined and does not contain additives, preservatives or anti-caking agents.. The sea salt flakes are in an unprocessed form and as a result, retain vital trace elements that humans need, such as magnesium, potassium and calcium.



Galapagos Island Sea Salt.jpg

Galapagos Island Sea Salt

Sea salt is the common term for unrefined natural salt derived directly from a living ocean. Since each body of water has different amounts of trace minerals, every sea salt looks and tastes different. Pura Galapagos Salt is made of 100% sea salt, of the highest possible quality. It is harvested exclusively by Galapagos Safari Camp on the island of Santa Cruz in the Galapagos Islands, which lie in the Pacific Ocean 600 miles from the coast of Ecuador. The Humboldt Current, a major upwelling system and the most productive marine ecosystem in the world, comes up from the southern tip of Chile to drive the tide into natural pools, which then dry out in the intensity of the equatorial sun and wind over a period of five months. Our salt contains no additives or preservatives;, a pure and healthy sea salt requires nothing but sun, sea, and an ocean breeze to crystallize. The weather conditions must be just right, and the process can only be completed once a year.

Madagascar Sea Salt.jpg

Madagascar Sea Salt

From the salt marshes of Ifaty in Madagascar, the purity of this fleur de sel is exceptional: 100% natural, without any addition guaranteed. Its whiteness, its purity and its taste are the fruit of a craft.

Called “Africa in the Eyes of Asia”, Madagascar is an island of giant trees, strange animals and indigo blue lagoons. The Ifaty salt works are located in a small corner of paradise on the southwest of the island, far from any pollution. Semi-nomadic fishermen, the Vezo, lived there in symbiosis with the lagoon. Unfortunately, these “sea gypsies” have seen their resources diminish, and have turned towards developing salt, the other treasure of the sea.

The nectar of salt marshes, fleur de sel is white and pure. It is the fruit of delicate artisanal work and ideal climatic conditions that occur together in Madagascar—plenty of sun, sea, and wind.

It forms on the surface of clay ponds when the water evaporates under the combined action of the sun and wind.

The quality of fleur de sel depends on the manner in which it is harvested and the care that is taken with drying and storage.
In Ifaty it is harvested or, more precisely, gathered, by hand.
