The Cornish Sea Salt Company, nestled along the pristine shores of Cornwall, is renowned for its high-quality, hand-harvested sea salt. Drawing from the pure Atlantic waters, the company produces a range of natural sea salt products that enhance dishes. Committed to sustainability and traditional methods, the Cornish Sea Salt Company not only brings a taste of the ocean to kitchens worldwide but also supports the local community and environment.
The original founder, Tony Fraser, came across an Iron Age salt works in a remote cove on the south coast of Cornwall while out walking. Most people would have made a mental note and carried on with their lives but Tony wanted answers: why had such an essential element of the county’s farming and pilchard industry died out? Because rock salt had become an easier way of harvesting the mineral.
The idea affected him so profoundly that he was determined to re-imagine the sea salt industry for the 21st century. Cornish Sea Salt was set up to bridge the ancient and modern worlds. And did you know that production is still inspired by the original methods of harvesting the goodness of the ocean?
