At Blackthorn, we understand that Salt is the single most transformative ingredient of all time. Clean and unrefined, the taste of our Salt is everything a discerning palate requires – sweet, with a mouth-watering tang. Used cleverly it can transform the mediocre, enhance a range of flavours or add a suggestion of rolling moreishness and sophistication to any meal.
Our ways are patient, gentle and sustainable: Scottish West Coast sea water is slowly trickled through the country’s only graduation thorn tower whilst being evaporated by the exhilarating West Coast winds.
Being the only salt in the world made in this way, the organically approved Blackthorn crystals are unique and desirable as a versatile sea salt which has been tried and tested by chefs across the country with great acclaim, including Michelin Starred restaurants. They have already experimented with Blackthorn for a multitude of uses: from ice creams, chocolates and deserts to incorporating in cheeses, curing, ferments and cocktails as well as the more expected, for use as a finishing salt.
The crucial crystal crunch factor is a given – we always encourage ‘by hand’ sprinkling if only to experience this satisfaction, but also to ensure the exact distribution and grain size that you desire on each occasion.
At Blackthorn, we use 100% west coast sea water and nothing else. There are no illusions: no adding, no seeding, no bleaching, just pure Scottish sea salt. When you taste Blackthorn Salt you taste nature – the sea, the winds and the thorns.
