Best salt ever
"I’ve bought this salt multiple times now. After you’ve tried this no way you can use the Himalayan one ever again. This Peruvian salt is mild but very flavorful and full of nutrients."
Extracted from Maras Salt Mines located in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, Cusco, Peru, at approx. 4,000 meters above sea level.
100% Natural Mountain Spring Salt, with high mineral content. Maras Salt Mines are formed by 4,200 pools, each pool of a few square meters where the saltwater that emanates from a stream, flows from the middle of the mountain, and by the effect of the sun, crystallizes creating a wonder of nature, the Maras or Andean Pink Salt.
Maras Salt Mines are considered as true salt mines. For hundreds of years, in this place, a 100% natural salt is produced. The work and care that communities carry out in maintaining artisanal production has been fundamental.
There is 38.2g of sodium per 100g of Maras Salt.
Paired with herbs and spices: Achiote, Rosemary, Spanish Laurel, Thyme, Cumin, Oregano, Black Pepper, Red Pepper, Garlic.
Available in 100g coarse grinder or 250g paper pouch.

"I’ve bought this salt multiple times now. After you’ve tried this no way you can use the Himalayan one ever again. This Peruvian salt is mild but very flavorful and full of nutrients."
"The quality of this salt is 10/10 Amazing taste Quality is superior to other salts I've tried."
"Ordered the refill pouch but they sent the jar."
"Recently bought this after watching Kates insightful trip to Peru. Fascinating stuff! Love love the taste of this salt (I am more a salty than sweet person 🤣) and the herbs give it an extra dimension of flavour - I find it quite grounding and stabilising."
"I'm a fan of flavored salts, and this one doesn't disappoint. I love that it's rock salt in a grinder, but you can also choose to purchase a refill. I also love that the herbs taste like fresh herbs and not an imitation flavouring. The mix of flavours is strong, but does not overpower your meal, so it is easy to add to almost anything!"
"I’m a salt person as I love using high quality salt for my food. I found a combo of superior salt from Peru and herbs quite refreshing and delicious. Recommended!"
