How it does good
The "salt of the earth" that's good for the earth, too
Sea salt comes from water, which means there are a lot of environmental elements to consider with it. Jacobsen tested water from over 25 locations before settling on the Netarts Bay oyster beds they now use. The oysters filter the sea water, creating a high salinity and low turbidity while filtering out any pollutants. Jacobsen also looks for ways to give back, both through their suppliers and the community. They use direct trade with Oregon seaweed farmers and work with brands who share their mission.
In addition to the Oregon seaweed farmers who help produce their furikak blend, they also use local rosemary farmers. Jacobsen has partnered with Burlap & Barrel and Diaspora to bring fair trade far beyond their own ingredients.

It’s very good, you don’t need to use very much to salt food. That’s a good thing.

Very convenient.
United StatesPepper infused salt
Several years ago I ordered the pepper infused salt wondering why it was better than just salt and pepper. Don't know how it works but it does something special to my grilled or bbq steaks. 3+ hours before you grill or bbq a nice ribeye, cover it with plenty of this pepper infused salt and let it dry age in the fridge. Put on plenty, wont be to salty when you grill it. So tender, so tasty. I use it on fish, and eggs, and so many things now. Its special stuff. Just ordered more...Get some...Gene from Idaho
United StatesExcellent product and arrived quickly
This salt & pepper mix is delicious and while it's kind of expensive, this is as good a price as you'll find anywhere. And Hive packed it up beautifully, plus it arrived in just a few days. Many thanks!
