Two salts from Iceland

White flakes, black flakes

Flaky Sea Salt is the plain option. Lava Salt blends sea-salt flakes with activated charcoal, which gives them their black colour. Saltverk suggests the dark flakes as a finishing touch on butter served with bread, or on soups, fruit and cocktails.

For the white flakes, the brand suggests grilled meat, seafood and pasta. The pairing offers a simple way to explore how a final sprinkle changes the look and texture of a plate.

Made in the Westfjords

Saltverk describes using geothermal heat to concentrate seawater and form salt crystals at Reykjanes in Iceland’s Westfjords. The salt is harvested by hand, then dried and packed.
