Fleur de Sel is one of the most coveted and rare salts in the world, and its price reflects its quality, craftsmanship, and labor-intensive harvesting process.
Unlike regular sea salt, which is mechanically harvested from salt flats, Fleur de Sel forms as delicate crystals on the surface of seawater under perfect weather conditions. These crystals must be carefully hand-harvested using traditional wooden rakes—a time-honored technique that dates back centuries.
Additionally, only a small amount of Fleur de Sel is produced each year, making it a limited, artisanal product. Its complex mineral composition and refined texture elevate the flavors of dishes, making it a favorite among chefs and gourmet food lovers.
In short, Fleur de Sel isn’t just salt—it’s an experience of craftsmanship, purity, and exceptional taste.
