Cyprus Flake Salt

Now that's customer service! I was a COO of a mail order company for ten years and I learned that sometimes the way a company responds to a mistake can show the real integrity of a company. I ordered a large bag of Mediterranean salt, and then decided to try a small bag of flake salt, because my wife likes it. The large bag came fine, but with it was not flake salt, but pink Himalayan salt. It wasn't the worst thing in the world, and I was going to let it go, but then San Fran Salt asked me for a review: so I told them, and showed them a picture of the Himalayan salt. They could see what I ordered.... and without even asking me, they sent me a bag of Cyprus flake salt. I got an email that it was on its way! And then, a day later I got another email: they had upgraded my flake salt order to 2 lb bag! That was above the call of duty. The flake salt arrived. My wife is happy. I'm happy. Thank you, San Francisco Salt Company. I feel very comfortable using you folks for my salt orders (which are a much better price, in quantity, than at my local organic food store)!!

Been buying this for years. Pestle it or crush it. Either way it's great because it's not too salty. In fact - I need to order some more!

This is a great finishing salt, especially when smoked!

This is such a lovely product. I am the sort who can wander through kitchen specialty stores for hours, wishing I were super rich, or window-shop in gourmet markets, and be perfectly happy. On trying flake salt and finding it wonderful, I used it sparingly toward the end, while searching for more. The first jar I had was bought on holiday. I'm not used to buying food online, so felt I was taking a big chance with this.I am so glad I did. This is a wonderful salt for when the salt truly matters. It's pretty to see, sparkling crystals highlighting the value of the food. The crunch is satisfying, especially when in contrast with a softer food.. It's works very well with steamed veg or fish. It's fabulous on ripe uncooked tomatoes.The salt comes in the pretty jar shown, with a cork, and the cute little spoon. The vendor had tucked an equally cute little gift in the package. It arrived quickly and was very well packed for safe shipping.I will continue to buy this salt from this vendor.

Can't wait to use this flake salt on homemade caramels and on top of chocolate truffles.

Best salt I've ever had. It really brings out the flavors of food

Lover this. So pretty great taste but even better if you are cooking something that needs that final touch this is it. When I make truffle fries the not only taste great they look beautiful

"At first, my head chef (lovely wife) didn't care for it. We were use to lighter Cyprus Flakes with a far different texture. But... the coarseness grew on us and now we liberally crust our steaks with it. Not an everyday salt (we use Himalayan Pink Salt for that), San Francisco Salt Co.'s offering is very useful for coating steaks and such before grilling... and the result rendered is delicious! The price is pretty ""tasty"" too!"

This is a great product. We love to put it on salads as well as baked goods.

I ordered a flaked salt as a gift for a friend and was so impressed that I ordered one for myself - love the salt and the sweet jar it comes in with a tiny wooden spoon !!! how cute and what a great gift !!

Best flake salt and really gives your food the perfect crunch. Less is more! Delicious salt

I have read a significant amount about flake salt and decided to try this one. While I have not compared it to any others, I will say that my last two dishes, spaghetti with meat sauce and biscuits and gravy, have had a significantly enhanced flavor. The best I have cooked - and being a 7 day a week single father of two, I cook a lot. I consider my culinary skills fairly good, and the taste of my dishes does get its share of compliments. But the flavor, was amplified - that is the only way I can explain it. For the skeptics I will also go ahead an say yes, its possible that I may have done something different in the prep work, but this is highly unlikely. As I stated before, being a single father I run by a very strict schedule, and my cooking is the same way. It is on the pricier side for salt, but as the adage goes, you get what you pay for. I would also like to try a companies fleur de sel, so feel free to send some my way and I will demo it!

wonderful so cute the jar, the salt is crispy great for baking and sprinkling on top of baked goods and candy. Also great in savory dishes.

My Montosco Cyprus Salt gender was almost empty and I couldn't find a refill. So I bought this thinking the salt might not be the same flakiness or quality. Actually, I was pleasantly surprised. I just use it to refill the grinder and have plenty left for future refills. I wish they would carry the Montosco grinders

Love this Salt & Glass Container makes it easy to use on a daily basis .

What a delightful difference from regular table salt! Leave it as is and get a slight crunch or grind it in your fingers for a finer, lovely salty taste. I think it tastes so much better than table salt and I will definitely order this again!!

The crystals are large and geometrically beautiful. The taste is clearly a superior product. Will soon order more flavors from this seller based on this product.

This may be a bit pricey..however it exceeds what I was looking for. The jar is cute, but the salt inside is has that rich sea salt flavor in large flakes that garnish many a desert with professional results.

Love the jar & spoon - well done - perfect for gifting - Only wish I had bought 2 so I could keep one for myself - Will purchase again!
