Coarse Celtic grey sea salt is harvested from the pristine coastal regions of France, known for its light grey hue and moist texture, derived from the mineral-rich clay lining (where the grey colour comes from) the salt ponds. This type of salt is highly valued for its trace minerals and briny flavor, which can alter the of any dish in a different way to other salts. Celtic sea salt is particularly good for maintaining electrolyte balance and aiding hydration due to its balanced spectrum of minerals.
 
The methods used to harvest this salt are centuries old, involving only wooden tools to preserve its natural state and mineral content.
 
It’s important to note that coarse sea salt and Celtic sea salt are not the same; while both may be coarse in texture, Celtic sea salt specifically refers to the mineral-rich grey salt from the Celtic Sea regions, processed traditionally to retain more of its natural minerals.
