Maison Orphee - Coarse Grey Sea Salt, 1 kg

Our Coarse Grey Sea Salt owes its colour to the clay-bottom pans of salt marshes from which it is hand-harvested after the evaporation of seawater by the combined action of the wind and the sun.

Our Sea salt is a source of minerals (sodium, magnesium, potassium, calcium) and trace elements (iron, manganese, zinc).

Did you know? Nearly 3,000 tons of sea salt are collected each year on the island of Noirmoutier.

Our salt, harvested by hand in Noirmoutier Island's tidal marshes, does not undergo other techniques other than sun drying and grinding when you want to get a finer grain. This artisanal process leaves its natural grey color to salt.
