Blackthorn Sea Salt Flakes 240g

I saw this being made on the TV series Amazing Hotels: life Beyond The Lobby, series 5, the Glenapp Castle episode. I thought I'd give this salt a try because it is just pure West Coast Scotland sea salt and it intrigued me. It was better value to buy off Amazon as I got a bigger box for my money with the free postage as opposed to paying postage and getting a smaller box buying direct.It is worth every single penny, its absolutely beautiful and a little goes a long way. The 4th pic shows me holding the box to try and illustrate the size :-)

This has a real flavour that transmits to deliver a unique subtle flavour to add depth to any dish, yes it costs more than normal salt flakes because it is different. Just try it you'll taste the difference.

I wanted to buy local. We have tried this salt before, and it’s perfect for seasoning and cooking.,it’s not too strong to add onto food after cooking. Great looking salt crystals and eco packaging, good product.

Very tasty salt.I like to support small independent suppliers/ manufacturers.

I normally use only Maldon sea salt but saw this on TV so thought I would try it.Maldon has a soft, almost sweet taste but this Blackthorn is sharp, slightly acrid and bordering on chemically tangy. To me it tastes like table salt but in crystal form, but that’s the taste I tried to get away from by changing to Maldon years ago.It’s three times the price of Maldon so I expected something even more pleasant than Maldon. I was very surprised at the taste but it’s so strong you wouldn’t use much to season a meal. The Blackthorn process involved is impressive but I thought it would impart an extra something to warrant the palaver, and the very high price.

I was buying cream in a supermarket when a lady overheard me saying to my son it was to make butter (I've been making my own butter for years). She recommended I try this salt and I'm so grateful to the lady as its amazing.It's hard to explain how good this salt is as it really does have a unique taste but I highly recommend you try it especially if you make your own salted anything ie caramel, chocolate, butter etc.My advice is to also buy an airtight container to store once opened to avoid it getting damp. It seems expensive but it really is worth every penny

Best Natural salt you can get. If you don't know how it's made look on line... amazing

We purchased this salt after seeing it on The Hairy Bikers. The story behind it, how it’s produced, is so impressive and inspiring. Highly recommended.
