Isle of Skye Sea Salt Company Our award-winning, natural sea salt is the first to be made on the Isle of Skye for 300 years.

The first company in the UK to develop a sustainable solar evaporation process; we create beautifully presented gift sets and individual tins in 3 flavours - Pure, Smoked, and Seaweed - all of which have won Great Taste Awards We take mineral-rich sea water and using just the sun and wind, transform it into pure sea salt crystals that have a distinct texture and flavour.
