Introducing 100% all natural and Kosher sea salt from the Caribbean.

Our sea salt has the highest quality 100% all natural sea salt and Kosher sea salt available in the market today.

If you purchase tropical sea salt, you can begin adding new flavor experience to salt by grinding your own Kosher salt from The Caribbean.

In August of 2003, Tropical Salt Corporation received Kosher certification from one of the nation's foremost Kosher certifying authorities.

The "K-Parve" logo on the front of Tropical Sea Salt products means that they have passed the rigorous tests dictated by KOAOA - Kosher Overseers Certification, and may be consumed by people who eat only Kosher food. Website: www.kosher.org

The idea for the salt project came from family members who were salt producers/farmers in the Grand Saline area, which is the largest producer of salt in Caribbean. Deriving its name from the French translation "Large Salt Land," Grand Saline has been harvesting salt for over 200 years and is the largest salt producer in Grand Saline. This history and purely natural tradition of processing salt without additives or chemicals has been passed down from generation to generation. You taste the purity in every gram of Tropical Sea Salt.

The matriarch of the Armand family wanted this marvelous sea salt of Grand Saline to be shared with the rest of the world. Something as smooth and subtle tasting as this naturally hand-harvested chemical-free product that is born from the aqua-marine waters of the Caribbean Ocean was a family secret worth sharing. The crystal clear waters that form the coast of Grande Saline are so remote that the only boats in the area are propelled by sails and oars, which have kept the waters of the ocean petroleum free for many years of salt harvesting.

The process consists of family members channeling seawater into a series of clay-lined ponds. The wind and sun evaporates the ocean water, leaving mineral-rich brine to concentrate. Family members briskly stimulate this live mixture, and dazzling salt crystals form. The SEA SALT is then gathered by hand in order to maintain a clean, pristine environment. This harvesting method preserves the vital balance of the minerals found in Tropical Sea Salt. Utilizing this traditional method, Tropical Sea Salt is a pure and natural unprocessed sea salt with trace minerals. The results have indicated that this sea salt contains a good balance of essential trace elements.

Tropical Sea Salt contains more magnesium and potassium but less sodium chloride than regular sea salt on the market today. Our sea salt has been manufactured in Caribbean under strict quality control standards to ensure that the naturally high mineral content of the coarse variety is not lost.
To ensure our products' integrity, we undertook a number of tests by ENC Laboratories. Commercial table salt is bleached, refined, and microwaved along with synthetic chemicals that act as flowing agents to achieve the texture. A simple test will immediately demonstrate the differences between Tropical Sea Salt and ordinary table salt. Tropical Salt Corporation products has been thoroughly tested and no contaminants or toxins were found. If you wish to inquire further, Tropical Salt Corporation can supply you with this information to be used at your discretion.

Many of our competitors boast a hand-harvested product by a co-op of farmers. Our Sea salt is handled and processed by family members, not by another group of workers not under our control. Competitors have also published trace metal data more than a hundred times higher than levels that actually found in their sea salt. These elevated values are typically obtained from labs that do not have sufficient experience with the complex seawater and salt matrix analysis that is required for accurate testing.

Tropical Salt Corporation utilized ENC Laboratories expertise for all our analytical data. Others sometimes claim that their salt is "naturally dried, retaining all the iodine, minerals, nutrients, and trace elements found in the purest waters of the world." Tropical Salt Corporation knows that this is not true and although a good sea salt is naturally dried, it preferentially concentrates only certain elements found in the oceans from which it was derived. The advantage of the Grand Saline salt is the area seawater and the lack of industrialization/pollution.
