Zoë Fleur de Sel from Mani, Greece

Zoë Fleur de Sel is a premium, hand-harvested sea salt from the Mani region of Greece, known for its unique flavor, delicate texture, and exceptional purity. Our fleur de sel is collected from the top layer of salt that forms on the surface of the seawater during the dry summer months, a process naturally enhanced by the intense Greek sun. This results in a high-quality, flaky salt that retains all the natural minerals, giving it a distinctive, clean taste.

The process of harvesting Zoë Fleur de Sel is labor-intensive. Our team carefully gathers the top layer of salt crystals by hand, ensuring that only the purest flakes make it to the jar. The salt is then left to dry naturally under the sun, which allows it to preserve its essential minerals and natural moisture. Unlike regular table salt, which is processed and stripped of nutrients, Zoë Fleur de Sel is left unrefined, making it not only a culinary delight but also a health-conscious choice for enhancing the flavor of your dishes.
