The summit of French sea salt: "fleur de sel",
also known as the caviar of salt, sprinkled
sparingly on cooked food is a refined way to "finish" the
taste. Used as a condiment at the table, fleur de sel is found in top restaurants as
chefs everywhere
discover its natural flavor enhancing qualities.

Sea salt
from Guérande is the yardstick for sea salt
in France, just as the region of Champagne gives its name to the delightful
bubbly wine which has many imitators but no equal. Fleur de sel from Guérande is
considered the finest and most refined of all. It is registered with the French
government exactly like fine wine appelations.
Guérande benefits from a dry micro-climate in
the midst of Brittany's oceanic climate (mild winters and cool summers). This
lack of rain is primordial in the formation of French sea salt since a rainy winter can
ruin the summer's salt harvest. The sea off the salt marshes is pristine and no
pollutants spoil the clay soils which lend their mineral content and light gray
color to the coarse sea salt.
