Smoked Applewood Salt Flakes, sometimes referred to as smoked applewood salt, applewood smoked salt, applewood salt, applewood smoked sea salt, are cold-smoked in a process using hardwood that is both bark free and aromatic for the best tasting smoked salt around.

The flake salt used in our Smoked Applewood Salt Flakes is produced by pressing sea salt with a large roller to compress the salt crystals into a flat, irregularly shaped flake. These "lamellose," or plate-like crystals, have a smooth surface and a low mass. This helps add to the crunch and the length of time that the salty flavor lingers on the tongue.

Shoppers who regularly purchase Smoked Applewood Salt Flakes are Mexican, Chicken and BBQ restaurants; independent spice shops; olive oil shops; seasoning companies; and sauce manufacturers.
