Maldon Sea Salt has been harvested in Essex, England, for about 2000 years now. The soft while flakes are are additive free, with a distinctive texture and pure, clean flavor with no bitterness. The salty flavour is more intense, so you need less. The Maldon Crystal Salt Company is now one of only four manufacturers producing salt in England. This small family run business continues to hand harvest in the traditional manner, and produces limited batches of this fine salt.
