This product is currently sold out.
Flower of salt is harvested in the Guérande salt marshes, late in the afternoon during very dry weather. Under the combined effect of the sun and a dry east wind, a fine skin of crystals forms on the surface of the “œillets”.
This skin, which is a pure white as it has never touched clay, is carefully gathered by the salt workers using a special rake known as the “lousse à fleur”. The very special weather conditions and the small quantity produced make it a rare and much sought-after product.
