Origin & Sourcing

Maras, Peru

A prehistoric ocean under the Sacred Valley of the Andes Mountains percolates to the surface via fresh water springs. The briny flow is then routed through intricate channels to more than 5,000 terraced ponds owned by hundreds of generational Incan families. When the ponds evaporate in the arid Andean climate, salt that’s particularly rich in potassium, magnesium and calcium is unveiled in a rosy spectrum. The Sacred Valley salt is then painstakingly hand-harvested, a loving contrast to the dynamite blast that’s typically used to shake pink salt loose from other mountainous mines halfway around the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you use Peruvian pink salt?

Peruvian pink salt is harvested in mineral rich water high in the Andes mountains giving it much more flavor and benefits than table salt and can be used in all of the same ways as your everyday salt.

What gives pink salt the color?

Pink salt gets it color from the trace minerals in the mountainous ponds where it is harvested.

What is the healthiest salt to use?

Pink Peruvian salt is one of the healthiest salts you can find because of the minimal processing and refining. It is hand harvested by the local villagers for thousands of years which makes it sustainable and healthier due to the trace minerals and lack of additives.

Do spices lose their flavor after the "Best by" date?

Don’t worry if your spices are past their best-by date. When sealed, our spices maintain their quality for about 3 years. After opening, they remain flavorful for an additional 2-3 years if stored properly. While the best-by date indicates peak freshness, our spices still deliver great flavor and are safe to use well beyond that date.
