Artisan Salt Company Aguni Sea Salt

Aguni salt comes from a remote island off the coast of Japan—far away from industrial contamination, surrounded by mineral-rich and unpolluted sea water. Aguni is extracted using a traditional Japanese method of filtering sea water through bamboo branches.

The salt’s crystals are soft and airy, mounding cloudlike in a serving bowl. Aguni’s flavor is pure, unadulterated saltiness without the harsh overtones and chemical flavors of standard table salt. With its soft texture and clean flavor, Aguni is also the finishing salt of preference when serving Japan’s luxurious Wagyu beef.
