Slowly grown and hand-harvested, Blackthorn Sea Salt natural crystals enhance flavours like no other. Each crystal has a completeness that is rarely found in food. Blackthorn contains magnesium and potassium, which provide bitter and sour notes; calcium for sweetness; sodium chloride for saltiness; and even tannins from the Blackthorn branches for that earthy, savoury element, giving a hint of umami and an incredibly long-lasting taste sensation. Perfect as a thoughtful wee present, to include in a hamper or for foodies looking to broaden their salt knowledge and try something different.
