How it is made

Every Saltverk salt starts with Arctic seawater from the Westfjords of Iceland, evaporated with 100% geothermal energy and lifted out by hand. Flavored salts hold their best flavor for about five years. No anti-caking agents, no additives, and every batch is third-party tested for heavy metals.
