The refill. The same Flaky Sea Salt as the jar, in a resealable pouch that holds nearly two jars' worth at a lower price per gram.
Tasting notes & pairings
Bright and mineral-forward with a satisfying crunch and a subtle umami finish. Large, dry pyramid flakes that dissolve on contact.
Profile: Pure • Pristine • Bold
Best with: Everything you cook. Pour it into the Saltverk jar, a salt cellar or straight onto a chopping board. Use it for cooking, brining, curing, baking and finishing.
How it is made
Arctic seawater from the Westfjords of Iceland, evaporated with 100% geothermal energy. Hot water from the ground at Reykjanes runs under our pans until the flakes form, and we lift them out by hand. Nothing is burned, so the carbon footprint in making the salt is zero, and the whole business is Climate Neutral Certified. Read why we make salt this way.
Ingredients & testing
Hand-harvested Icelandic sea salt, 170 g / 6 oz resealable pouch. Kosher certified with OU. No anti-caking agents, no additives, no iodine. Every batch is third-party tested for heavy metals. Pure flake salt keeps indefinitely; flavored salts hold their quality for five years.

Two ingredients. Arctic seawater and geothermal heat. That is the whole recipe, and it is why a jar of Saltverk costs more than the salt next to it. Why it costs more →
On subscription the pouch arrives every one to four months at 10% off, which for most households means you never think about salt again.
