Called the fruit of the ocean, sun, and wind, this organic blend of salt and organic herbs evokes a subtle bouquet of sophisticated flavors and fragrances. The aromatic addition of plants brings a tantalizing and delicate flavor to your meals. We import this salt from Guerande, a carefully preserved, charming, medieval town on the western coast of France that boasts a rich and fascinating history, and is home to closely guarded marshes where salt is cultivated by only natural elements: wind, sea, and sun. The salt is harvested by hand using ancestral, centuries-old techniques and craftsmanship to preserve the sustainable environment and provide pure, clean, potent, unrefined salt without any chemical treatment, washings, preservatives, or additives. Then organic, fragrant herbs, including rosemary, thyme, and basil, are added, making this perfect for grilled meats and vegetables.

Shake this into vinaigrettes or marinades. Try a dash in rich tomato and cream sauces for pasta, or use it in dry rubs. A treat for food-lovers, this is a fantastic cooking condiment.

Why keep all of this foodie goodness to ourselves? That simply would not be fair.
