Product details & mandatory information
Maldon Sea Salt Flakes are a high quality, natural sea salt produced exclusively in Maldon, England. Since 1882, the Maldon Sea Salt Company, a fourth-generation family business and purveyor to the British Royal Family, has been producing this unique salt in an elaborate process. Maldon Sea Salt is known for its pyramid-shaped structure and pure flavour.
Special features of Maldon sea salt

Extraction / production
- The salt is not extracted directly from the sea, but from the salty Blackwater River, which is flooded by seawater during spring tides.
- After extraction, the salty water is cleaned of sludge in tanks.
- The water is boiled in salt pans to remove impurities.
- Slowly lowering the temperature produces the characteristic salt crystals, which are then dried.
