Khoysan Meersalz

The Khoysan salt garden is located on the West Coast of South Africa, near St. Helena Bay, about 180 kilometers north of Cape Town. In 1996 salt was harvested for the first time from this special little basin by hand. The result: crisp, white salt crystals that taste absolutely delicious.

The heart of the salt garden: pools of different sizes and depths make up this huge, underground saltwater lake that is at least 400 years old. Here the salt is created by sun and wind, processed by hand and harvested and treated. The employees of this small South African family business are treated in a fair and responsible manner.
