Frequently asked question
Our salt comes from all around the world! From Cyprus, France, Peru, Sicily, and Pakistan (to name a few) as well as a few domestic sources from Hawaii, California, and Oregon!
Our main store is located at 206 Grant Ave, Millvale PA 15209…this is our flagship store, HQ, and production facility where all the magic happens!
We also have a location in Pittsburgh’s historic Strip District at 21st & Penn Ave (next to Mon Aimee Chocolat). This is our original location where it all began! We are only open here on weekends April-December (closed during inclement weather or when we have private events, festivals, and tastings).

YES! In fact, all of our salts, spices, rubs, & blends are gluten free EXCEPT for our Malt Vinegar Salt and Royale with Cheese Popcorn Sprinkle. We take food allergies very seriously and do our production in a way to avoid cross contamination,
Salts & spices should be stored in airtight containers. Our jars have lined caps which make them airtight and perfect for storage. Excess heat and light are the enemies of fresh spices and salts so a dark cabinet or drawer will do. The worst place to keep your spices is above the stove because heat from the oven will destroy essential oils in the spices & blends.
Because we do not use anti caking agents, some salts and spices can cake-up when exposed to excess moisture from a kitchen environment. If this happens pop them in the fridge, the coolness will help break up the clumped salts & spices.
