How much salt??
I can't believe I just paid nearly £7 for 15 grams of salt. Ok, I should have looked at the weight of it so I am at fault, however this is just insane. The jar is not great either, top heavy and quite clumsy. The flavour is average, whatever happened to the Natoora smoked salt that Ocado used to stock? Bottom line is you don't need fifteen grams of plain smoked salt for this amount of cash.
Jar is not balanced
I mainly bought this to keep maldon sea salt in after we have used the smoked salt. The smoked salt is very tasty and quite strong in flavour, however the jar is top heavy so if you fully open the lid, it tips the whole jar backwards due to the weight of the lid, not a good design.
Its Just Salt Right?
So it is salt, we can get much cheaper salt, but this is smoked, there are other smoked salts which are also cheaper! However, this is special, the pot looks great and it keeps the salt dry stops it from going claggy and keeps all the flavour in. I love this on salmon, you don't need as much as you do from "other" smoked salts, the taste is subtle but it is there and it makes a whole heap of difference to the end product. I ordered this because the pot looked cute, I also needed smoked salt for a recipe, if anyone can tell me which one, this would be great as I cannot find it now! It is better than any other Smoked salt I have tried, it is tastier, has a deeper more complex flavour and you really don't need much, I am a salt lover, add it to everything. Why 4 stars then, well I cant give 4.5 but the spoon broke when I was trying to remove it, it is stuck down with a very strong piece of sticky tape and now this is holding my spoon together, dual usage sticky tape, who thought of this? Go on give it try. If nothing else it looks pretty.
Nice but subtle flavour
We all enjoyed the flavour of this salt but you need a fair amount to be able to detect the smoky flavour unless it's on something really bland. It's a shame refills aren't available as this is very expensive for a tiny amount in a nice jar. The smoky flavour is very pleasant and this would be a nice addition to a hamper. However, I don't feel able to recommend it based on the price.
Paying for the pot or product?
I was sent this to review and whilst I would thoroughly recommend based on the taste of the salt as it is lovely, I could not recommend at the price it sells for. I feel you are paying for the attractive pot it comes in, rather than the product itself.
Smoky tangy salt!
I did not know smoky salt was a thing, but it is, and it's great, and we are using it in casseroles and with potatoes. Yum.
