Natural sea salt from Brittany (France) with PIMENT D'ESPELETTE - 200 g

Fine sea salt from Guérande – Salt production in the Guérande salt marshes is entirely natural. The salt contained in the sea water is collected through a series of shallow basins that favor water evaporation, it crystallizes and can then be harvested.

The fine salt of Artisans du Sel Guérande is obtained naturally by sifting (3 mm) of the harvests. The fine salt with “Espelette pepper” is the hit, it seduces with its intensity of fruit and grilled aromas, the Espelette pepper stimulates the taste buds but does not burn.

What is Piment d'Espelette?

When connoisseurs think of France, they quickly think of champagne, herbs from Provence or delicate fleur de sel. What is less known is that there is a region in the French Basque Country where chili is traditionally grown: around Espelette - a small town on the edge of the Pyrenees - the residents love and celebrate their own type of chili: the Piment d'Espelette. The noble and precious chili delights top chefs and gourmets all over the world with its particularly aromatic, slightly smoky note. The name Piment d'Espelette is regionally protected. The exclusive spice can only carry this if it is bottled in France and in glass packaging. It is then given the designation AOP (French Appellation d'Origine Protegée). In Germany it is found under the name Basque chili or Espelette pepper.
