This "caviar of sea salts" is fused with rare chilies, "Piment d' Espelette" from the town of Espelette in the Basque region of France. The chilies have earned the distinctive AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) which enforces strict rules of production and place of origin for this rare chili. The coarse grain of the salt imparts a dramatic crunch and the chili provides a burst of mild heat to flavor any gourmet meal. The naturally beautiful bamboo container is handcarved in Sulawesi and comes with a bamboo spoon.
