🏺The story behind the Salt: Cornish Sea Salt Flakes
It was a chance discovery that inspired the reinvention of the ancient industry of Cornish Sea Salt for the modern world. The original founder came across an Iron Age salt works in a remote cove on the south coast of Cornwall while out walking. Why had such an essential element of the county’s farming and pilchard industry died out? Because rock salt had become an easier way of harvesting the mineral. With this unearthing, the sea salt industry of Cornwall was reimagined for the 21st century.

Cornish Sea Salt was set up to bridge the ancient and modern worlds. Production is still inspired by the original methods of harvesting the goodness of the ocean. From humble beginnings on the south Cornish coast, this sea salt has now become international selling in over 33 different countries. This sale is used just as happily in Michelin-starred establishments as on the tables of home cooks who have an appreciation not only for taste and quality of artisan sea salt, but the exciting versatility and creativity it can bring to cooking.
