Maldon Smoked Sea Salt

TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

A distinguishing trait of Maldon salt is the feel of it between your fingers. The salt crystals maintain a pyramidal shape that keeps it from caking, and this unique shape has become a trademark, and is as distinctive as the salt itself.

Maldon Smoked Sea Salt is hand-harvested then gently smoked over oak. This allows it to attain a deep and bold taste, filled with a fantastic richness that adds dimension to your dishes.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

Best as a finishing salt, Maldon Smoked Sea Salt adds a quick extra flavor to your dishes. Sprinkle it over grilled vegetables, grilled meat, fish, poultry, or even eggs.

OFFICIAL PURVEYORS OF SEA SALT

Maldon Sea Salt has been made with the same traditional and artisanal methods in the coastal town of Maldon since 1882. Though times have changed and the world has moved forward, the salt remains constant.

The Osbornes are now on their fourth generation of master salt makers, having been harvesting the naturally formed pyramid crystals that have become Maldon’s signature for over a century. Indeed, that is a long time and a lot of salt. The family have long been proud custodians of an ancient culinary tradition, and creators of a brand recognized the world over.

In 2010, Queen Elizabeth II was warmly welcomed to the Maldon salt works, and in 2020, Maldon was granted a Royal Warrant as official purveyors of sea salt.
