About Blackthorn Salt 

At Blackthorn, they recognise Salt as the ultimate transformative ingredient. Their clean and unrefined Salt offers a delightful blend of sweetness and tang, elevating flavors with sophistication. The unique crystal crunch is a must, and they advocate for hand sprinkling to ensure precise distribution and desired grain size. Blackthorn exclusively uses 100% west coast sea water, providing a pure taste of nature – the sea, the winds, and the thorns.

The Blackthorn Method

At Blackthorn, they do things patiently, gently, and sustainably, using the power of Scottish West Coast sea water in a special way. They let nature do its thing in the beginning, with the sea and West Coast winds doing their part.

Picture a scene straight out of a Brothers Grimm fairytale – Blackthorn's thorn tower standing tall, looking at the sea and Arran mountains. It's not just a cool sight; it works really well too. They've got 54 taps and adjust them every day based on the weather. Sea water slowly goes through twigs and thorns, soaking up all the coastal winds. Some droplets disappear, leaving behind a strong salty liquid.

Blackthorn takes that extra salty liquid, adds in the know-how of their Salters, a bit of gentle heat, and that's it. This detailed process, perfected over time, captures the goodness of wind and sea.
