Smoked over Icelandic birch wood in the way of old Icelandic tradition. A bold, woodsy flake with a hint of sweetness and a smokiness that goes deep rather than loud.

Questions

How should I use this salt for cooking, seasoning and finishing?
Birch Smoked Salt is best for seasoning, finishing, and curing. Our favorite pairings include homemade guacamole and rimming a Mezcal Margarita.
What's the yield of one jar? How long will it last me?
One 3.17oz jar will last between 1-2 months depending on usage. Flakes are lighter and airy, so you can use less volume than table salt.
Are your salts iodized and do they contain additives?
No. Our salts are not iodized and contain no anti-caking agents or additives. Just pure sea salt, plus natural botanicals in the flavored varieties.
How should I store it?
Store in a dry airtight container, keep away from steam.
Are your salts iodized or do they contain additives?
No. Our salts are not iodized and contain no anti-caking agents or additives. Just pure sea salt, plus natural botanicals in the flavored varieties.
