This delicious sea salt is harvested from salt pans along the famous "salt road" between Trapani and Marsala, on the west coast of Sicily. The salt beds are managed completely by hand in a saline reserve protected from industry pollution. Relying on sun, wind, and the clean waters off of Sicily, the salt is unrefined, unwashed, and unaltered in any way and contains more magnesium, potassium and less sodium chloride than regular salt. It is delicate, with a complex balance of sea, brine, and minerals.
