Hand Picked Welsh Wild Garlic Salt

Description

The Flavour of a Welsh Spring, A Labour of Defiance

Each year, for a few fleeting weeks, the floor of the middle Swansea Valley is carpeted in the vibrant green of wild garlic. But to harvest it in a season of relentless Welsh rain is a true labour of defiance. The leaves are heavy with moisture, making the process of preservation a race against time, where much of the harvest can be lost.

This challenge, however, is the secret to its extraordinary quality.

Our small team hand-harvests these luscious leaves and begins a meticulous, slow-drying process. It is this very moisture, so difficult to tame, that locks in and concentrates the plant’s volatile oils. When successfully dried, the flavour is not diminished, but miraculously amplified, resulting in an aromatic intensity and pungent depth rarely found. This is the taste of a unique terroir, captured against the odds.

Tasting Notes & Profile

• Flavour: An explosive, aromatic burst of fresh, pungent wild garlic—less harsh than bulb garlic, with vibrant, green, umami notes—balanced by a clean, crystalline salinity.
• Texture: A fine, delicate crystal that dissolves pleasingly on the palate.
• Aroma: The unmistakable, heady scent of a wild garlic wood in bloom.

The Premier Experience: The Final Flourish

This is a finishing salt, intended to be the final, transformative touch that brings a dish to life. Its potent character is best appreciated when sprinkled over food just before serving. We recommend it on:

• Buttered new potatoes or roasted vegetables
• A perfectly cooked steak or lamb chop
• Pizza & tomato sauces
• Freshly baked bread with our Albanian olive oil
